According to the Times Educational Supplement City Academy in Homerton "has adopted some of the strictest and old-fashioned lunch rules".

The story says: "As soon as the meal is served, the deputy head and the other members of staff raise their hands to indicate to the children that they should settle down and sit in silence.
