The unusual site banners are to bring attention to the fact that Labour activists in Bexley are manipulating Facebook Groups with fictional posters. They deny it, threaten police action for ‘harassing’ a fictitious character and then demonstrate their willingness to impersonate by creating a false Administrator account in my name. The banner on display is chosen randomly from a selection of three, with a fourth bearing the familiar Bexley Council is Bonkers logo.
21 June (Part 2) - It’s one rule for them…
Last month OFSTED published its report on the effectiveness of Bexley council’s safeguarding of children and all five aspects of their responsibilities were judged “Requires improvement”. Greater detail was reported on 4th June.
Will Tuckley
responded to that damning commentary by issuing a Press Release. It said “I want
to thank all staff involved, councillors and our partners for working together
to deliver a better service and committing to continue to improve”. If you knew
no better you might believe that OFSTED rated Bexley ‘good’.
OFSTED has also recently
reported on St. Peter Chanel Catholic Primary School in Sidcup; it rated it as
“Requires improvement” in three categories and ‘good’ in a fourth. So not
brilliant but better than the Bexley managed children’s care services.
Presumably Bexley council sent words of encouragement to the school staff and
governors as they did for care services.
No, not a bit of it.
Care Services are the direct responsibility of Chief Executive Will Tuckley and
Director Mark Charters, shortly to take up a
new appointment in the Isle of Man.
Schools have boards of governors.
For rather better performance than Bexley achieved themselves,
council leader Teresa O’Neill
has decided that St. Peter Chanel School be issued with a formal warning.
The details are here.
Why didn’t Mark Charters and the Cabinet Member for Children’s Services get one?
