CREWE and Nantwich MP Edward Timpson has responded enthusiastically to plans outlined by Shadow Children's Secretary Michael Gove, to reform the schools system.
The plans aim to give every child the kind of education currently only available to the well-off, by recruiting the brightest young people into teaching, and giving power back to head teachers.
Mr Timpson said: "In my work as MP I have met many very talented teachers here in Cheshire who often find themselves drowning under rules and regulations.
"We need to give power back to the head teachers to set their own agendas depending on what is best for their specific school."
