HARRIS GROUP OF ACADEMIES AND CARPETRIGHT

That this House is dismayed to learn that the Harris Group of South London Academies is offering inter alia, cut price Carpetright Company carpets to its teachers in attempts to recruit and retain staff; believes this demeans the ethos of the education service and is a regrettable consequence of handing over the ownership and management of schools to people unsuited to the serious responsibility of educating young people.
