A North London headteacher, known for her strict approach, criticized Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson for her perceived opposition to academy schools, labeling her a Marxist. Ms Birbalsingh argues that Phillipson's reluctance to support the freedoms of academies reflects disdain for their success, as her high-performing school surpasses many traditional schools. She alleged that Phillipson avoided discussing key aspects of the Government's Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill, implying a lack of commitment to innovative approaches in education. Her academy's successful strategies include intensive behavior training for students to maximize their classroom effectiveness.
Your record in Parliament reveals what you really think of academies, which is that you hate them. You are pretending to like academies now that you are Education Secretary.
I've repeatedly pointed out your Marxist leanings. You should stick to your convictions and admit that you do not believe academy freedoms are a good thing.
Her school, rated outstanding by Ofsted, outperforms many of the UK's top fee-paying schools at GCSE, showcasing the effectiveness of her strict approach.
Ms Birbalsingh's school has been praised by Tory politicians such as former prime minister Liz Truss, emphasizing its success in a deprived area.
