Montgomery Primary School, in Sparkbrook, is being forced to become an academy – among the first primary schools to do so. This move is opposed by teachers, support staff and parents. Today saw staff out on strike again, with a picket of around 100 people, comprising of staff, parents and supporters. You can read a full report on the strike from the Alliance Against Academies here. There is a public meeting tomorrow evening about this issue.
