Councillors asked to approve plans to boost school standards in Stoke-on-Trent
Councillors are set to rubber-stamp plans to improve standards in Stoke-on-Trent’s schools.
A report has been drawn up and will be presented to Stoke-on-Trent City Council’s cabinet on September 27.
Cllr Alan Dutton
Councillor Alan Dutton, cabinet member for education, said: “Our vision is to make lives better, by radically improving outcomes for children and young people in the city.
