Exclusive: teachers at celebrated academy, led by £250,000 superhead, receiving only statutory sick pay of less than £100 a week educationuncovered.co.uk/news/151331/te…
Another follow-up on the case of Yasmin Omar, who was left homeless while off sick while employed by Brampton Manor Academy.

The fact that this school, as an academy, doesn’t have to follow national teacher pay and conditions and thus doesn’t offer more than statutory sick pay, has huge implications for staff if they do get sick.
I go through the detail on that in this piece: could translate to a difference of many thousands of pounds over a period of months. educationuncovered.co.uk/news/151331/te… I understand that most academies do follow national pay and conditions on this.
Btw it's really poor, I think, for this trust not even to acknowledge a request for comment on this, or on the Yasmin Omar case more generally. Are any of its policies going to change as a result of this judgment, I wonder? @BramptonManor1, @mjfaust ?
This is the second of 2 things I’ve been reminded about re deregulation through the academies policy this week: the first was that, unlike LA schools, they don’t have to have a teacher on their governing bodies.
