Reports of the controversial methods of "Britain's strictest headteacher" have divided readers.
Barry Smith was recently hired by King's Leadership Academy, Dingle, as a freelance consultant. But the ECHO reported this morning that students at the Liverpool high school staged a protest over the controversial methods of the recently appointed figure.
In his short time at the school Mr Smith has already sparked controversy and has been accused of making "sexist" and inappropriate comments towards students. Students at the school claimed to the ECHO Mr Smith held an assembly for all the girls in the mixed school and accused the students of having a "resting b**** face" and of "using tears to get their way".
