School should be allowed more time
WE believe that Abbeydale Grange School should be given more time to improve and that options other than a 'hard federation' should be explored.
We are concerned that Cabinet instructed officers to find a partner to form a 'hard federation' (in effect a merger) and, if this couldn't be done before the end of term, to proceed with closure.
We suspect that the Lib Dem administration and council officers are being pushed by central government into looking for a hard federation in a very short time frame.
Coun Jillian Creasy, Leader of the Green Group
