Headteacher predicts rush to independent sector
A headtecher has predicted a rush to independent schools following the strike threat issued by state school govenors.

Kathryn Bell, head of Burgess Hill Girls, said an increasing number of families who had traditionally educated their children in the state sector were opting for independent schools as the funding crisis deepened.
