Bradley Stoke Community School (BSCS) is staging a meeting for parents/carers this evening to communicate the latest results of research into the possibility of the school converting to academy status.
The school first registered its interest in becoming an academy in June 2010, following an invitation from Education Secretary Michael Gove issued shortly after the General Election.
The school Governors agreed to take the next step towards to conversion in December 2010 and tonight’s meeting is a precursor to the launching of a formal consultation process.
