SOS-What can we do to Save Our Isle of Wight Primary Schools? (0 messages) |
|
| admin | We ALL need to attend the Public Consultations (see News and Events for details) with questions prepared in advance. 1. We want a 4th option that does not mean closing half of our Primary Schools. 2. What has been said to staff at our schools? Gurnard Primary School staff attended a meeting at their school and yet other staff have been told they are 'not allowed to get involved'. 3. Exactly what will happen to the land adjoining the Primary Schools? 4. The Council Questionnaire, page 2, paragraph 4 talks about 're-enthusing teaching staff.' What does this imply? 5. How many letters and emails have been received at County Hall OPPOSING the closure of Primary Schools. 6. Ask for a show of hands at the meeting, those for and against closing Primary Schools. |

The parent's organisation, Wightpaper, which has been opposing the Council's proposals from the outset, has some very well considered and convincing ideas about how we can move forward without losing so many primary schools. If you would like to find out more, please contact Verity Bird at wightpaper@yahoo.co.uk |

I agree with deiaSOSsupporter as her opinion is exactly right,and as one of her friends who also attends Ryde High, I also think that the IOW Councils are making an awfully good job at messing up the systems and communities of the IOW. It was alright until these silly londoners,who think they can od everything their way came along and disrrupted everything. Closing all of these schools will just make people move away from the island,and as Deia said,the mainland is craving small schools whereas we on the island are desperately trying not to have big schools built here,as it just doesn't suit the characteristics of everything over here.Children in Primary,Middle and High schools will all be disrupted because of this,no matter what option is chosen (if they get that far with our protests!) for no reason whatsoever except that the council want to do something with their money and think they should wreck everything and start again-they are trying to make the IOW a place that it is not! They should use the money they have already on improving the schools we already have and are happy with! We need to stop this from happening.Now! .. |

| admin | IW Council have taken the incredible decision to close 23 of our 43 Primary Schools and 1 Middle School. Please look at our 'News and Events' link to find out where the Public Meetings are to be held. We plan to lobby all of these meetings. We plan to set up a bank account to fund a huge campaign to overturn this ludicrous decision. Please keep looking at the website to discover what is happening in your area. |

Lets make the IOW a free state, without interference from the bigwigs in London. The IOW is the same size as singapore, makes you think eh? |

| admin | Should there be a ban on shops giving out plastic bags or is it more important that retailers reduce the amount of packaging used? |
