Brexit has pushed families out of London, says head of closing Hackney school

The headteacher of a school that is closing because it has too few pupils warned some families have fled London because they no longer feel “wanted or needed” since Brexit.

Jo Riley, head of the 150-year-old Randal Cremer primary in Hackney, said some of the most marginalised families in the area are feeling “pushed out, unwanted and unheard.”
