more Labour closures 9 November, 2007

 The other night I met parents and staff of St Gorges High school in Walkden, another good school being closed by Labour. I cannot to obvious reasons repeat what I was told, but suffice to say for me it brought flashbacks of Hackney Labours sweeping closures of good community educational establishments in Hackney over the head of parents and the communities advice. I only hope the tremendous showing and the strength of support will show the folly of their ways and they row back from closure before it’s too late. Not only did my mother-in-law (O I must just add the worlds best teacher) do time there and come out with glowing reports, it is also a well performing faith school that parents are clambering for more of.
