School’s £100,000 offer
QUINTIN Kynaston secondary school has been offered up to £100,000 to ensure headteacher Jo Shuter stays at Pimlico School.
Ms Shuter has headed both schools since Pimlico was put on special measures in January.
She has split her time 50-50 between them.
The cash boost for Quintin Kynaston was proposed by council school chiefs hoping to keep her at Pimlico until the school becomes an academy in September 2008.
A report from the council executive on July 9 revealed funds would only be forthcoming if the school became an academy.
It states: “The council, given the extraordinary level of support provided by Quintin Kynaston school would not wish to see its aspirations quashed by a Department for Education and Science proposition to support only Pimlico School into a new designation, and would therefore wish to consider proposing to the governors of Quintin Kynaston that it be offered an annual funding supplement equivalent to the income from the endowment received by Pimlico as an academy.” |
