Description
From the author of How To Lose Friends And Alienate People comes another witty and concise memoir-cum-manual.
In 2011, following the extremely arduous task of founding a free school in the face of political controversy, fierce criticism and, he admits, inexperience, Toby Young’s West London Free School opened in Hammersmith.
Offering a classical liberal education, it was the first of its kind in England to sign the Funding Agreement with the Secretary of State for Education. The school has since received a glowing report from Ofsted in 2015 and has been placed in the top five per cent of mixed comprehensives in England, following the publication of its first GCSE results in 2016.
In the few years that have passed since the West London Free School opened its doors, there has been a proliferation of free schools across the country that has seen the number jump from just 24 to well over three-hundred, with many more preparing to open soon.
But the path to this success was not easy. Now Toby Young is here to offer some reflections and guidance for those who are looking to join the free school crusade.
