| Summary: | Mike Baker visits Watford Grammar School For Boys, one of thirty two schools to be granted Academy Status under the coalition government's new Academies Act. We ask how things have changed for the school and whether more will follow their lead.

We assess in detail the major areas of consideration for a school planning on becoming an Academy--from financial implications to teachers pay, special education needs and the role of local authorities. |
