This follows distribution of paper copies to all schools and academies across the county earlier this month. If you have not seen a copy in your staffroom or on your noticeboard, please take time to look at the electronic version linked from this page.

Here are some of the stories featured:

  • Headlines from our recent schools’ survey;
  • Latest on the schools’ funding crisis and how your school is affected;
  • Reorganisation deadlines;
  • New year, new course, new you: how to apply for a learning grant;
  • Academy chains cherry picking West Sussex schools;

  • Teaching Assistant disputes;
  • Overpayments to term-time only staff: what to do.
