- Summary:
- At Lilian Baylis School it's the Year 10 AGM, the annual opportunity for students to raise a range of issues that concern them. But headteacher Gary Philips is growing increasingly frustrated with the familiar preoccupation with uniform and school bags. The school's pastoral committee, which regularly reviews the progress of the large number of vulnerable children who attend the school, discusses specific cases, and despite the backs-against-the-wall mentality of being on the DCSF National Challenge hit-list of schools facing the possibility of closure if they drop below 30% A*-C GCSE including English and maths, there's some positive news for staff just before the Christmas break. The most recent results put English and maths in the top 10% of schools nationally.
