I've heard that lots of Steiner schools are applying to become "Free Schools", which is unsurprising because it will mean parents will no longer have to pay fees. I'm not sure how much the schools will like this bit though:
"All Free Schools will be accountable like other state schools via inspections and tests"
The Libdem's weren't in favour of free schools before the election (not that this means anything now!)
