results disagree with the statement that the government intends that schools are free to form working families
schools coalition free banner that takes half the proportion of disadvantaged students compared to other public schools in England, the data revealed under the Freedom of Information Act shows.
Rachel Gooch, a governor of Suffolk Primary School, asked the 24 free schools were opened in September in the proportion of pupils on free school meals.
Of the 23 schools that responded, Gooch found that, on average, only 9.4% of pupils in independent schools are eligible for free school meals. Statistics released by the Ministry of Education (DfE) show that on average 18% of students in public schools in England are entitled to subsidized meals. To be eligible for the benefit, the income of the child's family must be below £ 16 000.
Gooch compared the intake of disadvantaged children in each of the five free schools closest schools for pupils of the same age group. She found that all but one school pupils taking free within the average private school of their neighbors.
The results disagree with the statement of the coalition that schools are free training for families of the working class. Michael Gove, the education minister said that the establishment of free schools is intended to address flaws in the education system, including a concentration of the lowest in schools "our poor cities and towns."
The policy is based on charter schools in New York, which is said to have bridged the gap between students and their peers Innercity in the suburbs.
Meanwhile, it was announced that two of the oldest football clubs in Britain, Everton and Derby County, will be the opening of free schools for poor children, who were excluded of mainstream schools. The clubs hope that schools use sports as a way to encourage students to learn.
Everton- DfE said that 12 of 24 free schools that opened this fall are in the poorest parts of the country. But an analysis by The Guardian in August showed that the zones of influence of free schools were biased in favor of the middle class and white students from working class are underrepresented.
- Gooch found that free schools are in poor regions of the country, who refuse to take their fair share of students from low income households, compared to neighboring schools.
In the free school in West London, founded by journalist and writer Toby Young, a little over 23% of students eligible for free lunch, compared to just over 32% schools in five neighboring countries. Batley Grammar School, a free school in Kirklees, only 4.3% of students eligible for free school meals, compared to 19% in the five neighboring schools.
young man replied that the blog Gooch school meals free data at your school "was not the same as the actual number ... because some parents do not claim the right, either through ignorance or embarrassment. "
