In September 2007 I was hired by the Wembley Park Observer to cover a local treetop protest. That started a documentary spanning three years and prised open the world of Academy schools and the slow move to private interests running the UK state education system.

Now, three years since I hit the record button, this film still stands as a warning of private interests in schooling, especially when they are so close to government, and local councils that stomp on the voice of the community.
Now the Labour Academy school program has been overtaken by the Con-Dem coaliion, had rocket booster’s strapped to the underside and ignited in the most aggressive attempt to privatise the last remaining public services in the UK, our children’s education.
