We must make education top class
0 Have your say It’s a credit to this newspaper that it has consistently reported Peterborough’s educational performance and the difficulties our schools are facing. As has been stated, Peterborough finished second to last among authorities at the Key Stage 2 level: this was the same as the previous year.Furthermore, the City Council sent letters to 14 schools (12 informal, 2 formal) regarding their performance.

So far they’ve discussed home-schooling – Stacey, 28, recently confessed she’d taken her sons Zachary, 10, and Leighton, five, out of school, while Boris, 53, revealed he was home-schooled for a year as a child. And they’ve touched upon Boris’ father Stanley’s appearance the previous day on Loose Women talking about his new book. However, today, the main topic between the pair is the Foreign Secretary’s global initiative: Leave No Girl Behind – 12 Years of Quality Education, after his office got in touch to say he was keen to tell Fabulous readers all about it. And who better to grill him than our very own columnist Stacey Solomon? Here’s how they got on… … [Read more...] about Stacey Solomon grills Boris Johnson about women’s education, his sister Rachel and dad Stanley
