Magistrates were told he wanted to highlight what he regards as the | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
party's dangerous policies. The 33`year`old was given a conditional | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
discharge for 12 months and fined ?200. | :04:03. | :04:07. | |
Even if you don't find it a productive or tasteful method of | :04:08. | :04:08. | |

It was only four years ago when parents fought a long campaign to | :05:24. | :05:24. | |
parents fought a long campahgn to keep the school open when it was | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
known as the Gedling School. It was turned into an academy under the | :05:29. | :05:35. | |
guidance of the E`ACT Trust. But only this year, the trust lost | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
control of ten schools, including Sherwood, because of worries about | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
performance. In a statement, the executive principal of the trust has | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
said he fully understands the recent frustrations of parents and staff. | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
After the decision to close the school was taken, the Redhill | :05:49. | :05:51. | |
Academy Trust has been asked to secure a good education for all the | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
students involved. The decision to transfer to the Redhill Academy | :05:56. | :05:58. | |
Trust is part of an agreement with the Department for Education to find | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
new sponsors for academies. It means pupils in years seven, eight and | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
nine here will be offered a place at the Carlton Academy from September. | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
Years ten and 11 will remain at this site while they take their GCSEs. | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
Parents won the fight to save this school in 2010 but, after today's | :06:16. | :06:16. | |
school in 2010 but, after today s announcement, many have left feeling | :06:17. | :06:18. | |
their fight was for nothing. That's your news, so it's goodbye | :06:19. | :06:26. | |
from me, but now, the weather. As expected, there was some heavy | :06:27. | :06:41. | |
rain earlier today. Rainfall totals well over an inch in parts of the | :06:42. | :06:46. | |
East Midlands. More to come tomorrow with heavy and scattered showers but | :06:47. | :06:49. | |
also decent spells of brightness in the afternoon. Showers have cleared | :06:50. | :06:56. | |
to the north. We have had a dry evening but more showers will come | :06:57. | :06:59. | |
