It is hard to see how different notice periods (Recommendation 6 in the Committee's report) for different types of school can be implemented fairly. We are conscious of the particular challenges faced by small primary schools, which can result in significant pressure for the leaders of these schools. While we cannot immediately see how to implement different notice periods fairly, we will consider the proposal as we undertake the Big Listen. The majority of recommendations will be explored through our ‘Big Listen’ (Recommendations 1, 3, 5 to 8, 10, 13, 20 to 22 and 24 to 25). We look forward to hearing the sector’s, and the public’s, views on these important matters, and will take action immediately after the Big Listen concludes.
