When it was confirmed that I was the new owner of Oak Hill Academy. I shut the academy for a week whilst I made my plans.
I called all the staff in to a meeting and fired the headmistress and deputy head on the spot. After they slumped out of the room, I announced that I would be the new head and Sally Thorn the new deputy. There were a few murmurs amongst the staff, So I said anyone who does not like it can leave.
An old-time teacher Mr Watson stood and said, "I'm too old to put up with this shit."
Mr Watson then left the room, and a hush befell the other teachers.
Now I commanded the attention of those in the room, it was time to outline my plan. I knew they would be compliant after, due to the power of the amulet hidden under my shirt.
"First off there will be sweeping changes," I made a big sweeping gesture with my arms.
"Discipline is seriously lacking at this academy, and I'm not just talking about the students," I said looking each of the staff members in the eyes.
I continued, "From now on there will be a uniform dress code for both students and staff."
"Failure to comply will result in a demerit," I paused for dramatic effect.
"If either a student or member of staff receives 3 demerits, then you are done and will be thrown out of this institution," I could see the gravity of my words sinking in to the faculty.
I took a quick look at Sally, who nodded her approval to my speech, "Finally, this academy has a 2% pass rate, I want this up to 95% by the end of this academic year."
"My word is final, and you can rest assured that any orders from Mrs Thorn's should be treated as if I said them to you myself," I said as I gestured toward Sally.
"On Monday morning, first thing, the students will take a standardised test to determine their current levels," I lifted one of the papers up for the group to see.
I started to write on a white board, "Students with a pass of 75 to 100% will be moved to the honour role scheme, where the best tutors will help them achieve their potential."
I then switched to a red pen, "Students between 65 and 74%, will be in the special measures group to raise them to honour roll levels."
I continued, "Each student that makes up their grade will result in a £500 bonus for his or her tutor."
That got a sigh of excitement within the room, "Lastly students who fail to reach 64% will be on a 3-month probation, if their results do not rise within that time period then they are out."
The room hushed again, "But as an incentive, each student you move from probation to special measures will net you £500."
Another collective cheer, "But, if a student drops a level without a good reason, then the student and the tutor both get a demerit."
The teachers faces all drained to white.
With that, Sally and I left the room.
As we walked in to the headmaster's office, a lady in her mid-50's barged past us muttering we could shove her job where the sun doesn't shine!
"I guess old Mrs Henderson is staying loyal to the old head," Sally said.
I looked at her and smiled, "Saves me firing her when I find someone younger and more attractive."
I had already had my team of accountants go over the academy's books, and they were in a real financial hole. But my cash injection would hold off the creditors for a few months.
I told Sally that until I found a new PA, she would have to pull double duty.
She smiled and said, "It would be my pleasure, especially to work long hours alone in the office together."
My cock twitched at her seductive tone; I was unsure who was controlling who in this relationship.
We headed over to Michael's a local uniform supplier to the schools in the area. We were greeted by Alison Bainbridge, a mid-30's woman in a conservative skirt suit.
"Welcome to Michael's. Uniform outfitters to all the local schools for over 30 years, how can we help you?" She said with her hand out stretched.
After the handshakes were done Sally said, "We are the new management from Oak Hill Academy, and we are introducing a uniform dress code"
"I'm not familiar with Oak Hill, what age are your pupils?" Alison asked.
Sally continued, "Boys and girls, aged 18 to 22-years old."
"We also need a uniform for the staff as well," I chimed in.
"I see, and what kind of uniform are you looking for, polo shirts?" Alison inquired.
"No, full formal uniforms, shirts, ties, blazers the works," I confirmed.
Alison's eye lit up at the prospect of a very large order.
Over the next hour I had chosen a bottle blue blazer, with gold trim and the academy's logo on the breast pocket. A grey pullover with gold trim and the school's logo embroidered on it. For a tie I went with a bottle blue, with thin gold stripes. Finally, boys had grey trousers and girls a box pleat grey skirt.
For the staff a black morning suit with a black waistcoat, pinstriped trousers for the men and pinstriped black pencil skirts for the women. Finished off with a silver tie.
Alison advised she would have us a mock-up of the uniforms in 24 hours.
