Teacher banned from the classroom for drinking at school after parents evening
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground."
"Leanne Grove, former headteacher at Hazeldene School, Bedford, admitted to a Teaching Regulation Agency (TRA) Panel that she had consumed alcohol on the premises before a governor's meeting and after a parents evening. A teaching assistant discovered two cans of gin and tonic, one empty and one unopened, in a handbag next to the former headteacher's desk in March 2023, according to a TRA report. Concerns were reported by the school's assistant headteacher, to the vice-chair of governors and the Local Authority Designated Officer (LADO)."
The Independent solicits donations to fund reporters, claiming trust across the political spectrum and emphasizing on-the-ground coverage of issues like reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech. The organization cites investigations into Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and the documentary 'The A Word' as examples. Donations support sending journalists to report from both sides.
