Oenone Crossley-Holland, academies, Ofsted and behaviour.

Oenone Crossley-Holland's book, Hands Up, is based on her experience at Harris Academy in South London. It is an interesting account of the reality of life in a tough school, and makes interesting comparison with the head's view and the school's view - we know the school's identity for sure because of a visit by her father. The work may not interest all readers of this weblog, so I'm just putting a link to it here.
