Let me reassure readers that no primary school in Hove is currently without a head teacher.
It is true six schools currently have acting heads (normally, the existing deputy head) while we recruit new permanent heads for them.
This is a perfectly normal situation, simply because it takes time to appoint a head teacher.
I can confidently say to parents that no child's education will suffer simply because six of our schools are in this position.
