Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, if she will take steps to pause the academisation process for King Edward VII School, Sheffield in the context of her Department and Ofsted reviewing the use of limiting judgments.

As with any school that receives an overall judgement of inadequate, King Edward VII School will become an academy. The school will be transferred to a trust with a strong track record of ensuring pupils receive the highest standard of education.
