Mike Barker for Darlington

Cllr Mike Barker

Margaret Asquith to leave

8.49.45pm BST (GMT +0100) Fri 6th Oct 2006

The Head of Children's Services, Margaret Asquith, whose short time as head of the education service in Darlington has been controversial and divisive, is to leave the Council's employment. She is off to a similar position in Bolton.

With her loss and the changes to Kevin Duffy's responsibilities, are we seeing our prediction of a week ago, that Government support for a new Eastbourne Academy would be dependent on major changes in the education department, being confirmed? Surely this is not just co-incidence. More from our man in the know, later.
