A PRIMARY school looks set to be taken over by an academy chain – whose director was an Ofsted inspector that helped kickstart the process.
Moulsecoomb Primary School was given the lowest possible rating by education watchdog inspectors – including Timothy Rome – after a visit in April 2019.
The damning report started a process which saw the government intervening to force the school off Lewes Road to become an academy.
