The headteacher of a struggling Suffolk school has vowed to work with Ofsted after inspectors warned it is not doing enough to come out of special measures.
The education watchdog recently sent Felixstowe Academy a letter warning bosses not to hire newly qualified teachers - adding that leaders and managers were not taking effective action towards the removal of the school's current 'inadequate' rating.
Taken over by the Unity Schools Partnership in September, the school - which is based in the town's High Street - experienced a difficult spell under former provider the Academies Enterprise Trust (AET).
