Councillors and Residents response to Public Consiltation
Councillors David English and Monica Walsh who were not told about the meeting have agreed the the following statement:
"We are unhappy with the short notice of the meeting given by the Council and the manner of commnication used. We also think holding the meeting just after half term means that parents are unable to hear about meetings from school staff or each other.
We are alerting parents about this meeting and stessing how important it is that they try to attend if they are available and can arrange child care at such short notice."
Resident grandmother Cathy Froggatt Said:
"How Can the Council expect to hear people's opinion if we are not told about meetings early enough to make arrangements for their Children."
