The house two door up from me has been turned into a free school. It has seven teachers (all yummy mummies who only want to work part time) job sharing, and it has 20 pupils ranging from 7 to 16 years old. All the pupils are children who live in the street. There is £6000 for each child allocated from the government, and the teachers are each working 2.5 days a week.
The biggest class in the school is 5 pupils, and one of them is a relative of the PM. Do you think it would work in Scotland? It might save some small schools if they were to turn into free schools
