At the single form entry school in Haringey, where I am chair of governors, we are 60% full. We've just about managed to hold it together financially but it's getting very hard. Only silver lining is we've had our best first choice numbers for receptions since 2012.

It's the same. It's partly why American leadership matters. To easy for UK and other governments to follow their lead. It's horrible.
