“Since Gove took over – schools all over England failing, free schools being shut down, academy companies being stripped of control of schools
Absolute CHAOS – so why did Gove deliberately create such chaos
Each time a school becomes an academy the council must hand over the title deeds for the school if it has them (avg value £5m per school)
As over 2,000 schools have been forced to become academies that is £10 billion (min) state assets Michael Gove has demanded the title deeds be handed to him
I wrote an FOI request to Michael Gove’s department and asked him where are the title deeds to England’s schools
After 3 months he still refused to answer – I had to involve the information commissioner who wrote and demanded they answer within 10 days
And now we find out why Michael Gove did not want to answer
