There's a lot of information people are not aware of, and if we don't get out and speak about it, they won't think about it. There's got to be a balance of information. We want people to be aware and make an educated vote, and we want to make sure every person who cares about a child's education is aware of the ramifications. If we get out and vote, we can make a difference.

We want FORT to be a long-term entity. Right now, the focus is schools because the chance of losing accreditation is very real.

I'm new to politics, but my main passion is schools, so I fell into politics as a result. This is a defining moment in Plymouth. We need to do something.
