I AM writing to you as a very angry parent of a child who attends Longsight School.

I read your piece on Christ's Church, and am very pleased for the school, but I do not class our school as failing.

Does failing mean when children are happy at school? Ours are.

Does failing mean when SATs results are getting better? Ours are. In fact far better than those of Christ's Church, they are being praised and we are being told we are failing.

This does not ring true.
