Gove plan to cut schools red tape [belfasttelegraph.co.uk]

Education Secretary Michael Gove is to outline further details of his plans to grant state schools more independence.

The newly named Department for Education says it wants to "cut red tape" and allow primary and secondary schools the same freedoms as academies.

It comes the day after two education Bills, which will pave the way for "free schools" - a key plank of the Tories plans for education reform, were announced in the Queen's Speech.
