Schools need a 'no excuses' culture, says Gibb
Urging other schools to follow suit, Gibb singled out the Michaela Free School in North London, which has recently introduced a ‘family-style lunch’ where children share and serve food to one another, which provides them with the ‘character traits needed to succeed in life’.

The real genius of school autonomy is that when one thousand flowers bloom, we are able, given time, to see which flowers bloom brightest.
“Current research points in the same direction – it is the traditional, academic, disciplined, ‘no excuses’ approach to education that will truly allow pupils to fulfil their potential.”
