I was chuffed to hear that the Norwood School rebuild is now planned to go ahead. It had been cancelled by Tory Education Secretary Michael Gove but after being told it was so far advanced it made more sense to proceed he announced last Friday this one will. Well done Norwood School.

This is great news for this school. The last Ofsted report said it was a Good school that is rapidly improving. Not so long ago Kingsdale School was in this position and its rebuild really seems to have helped it become outstanding. Fingers crossed this helps Norwood School replicate this success.
