Black Country schools are now a class act after past struggles

TWO secondary schools in the West Midlands had been considered among the worst in the region before recent Ofsted visits.

- 

Willenhall E-ACT Academy and Wednesfield Academy had suffered years of troubles while regarded as failing schools before recent turnarounds.

The hard work of leadership teams has paid off with both now having shaken off their inadequate ratings which had weighed them down for so long and damaged their reputations locally.

It means both have gone into the new academic year in September with a new lease of life and looking ahead to brighter futures.
