I note the Conservatives proposed policy for more choice for our children's education. I only hope that will apply to primary schools. Our school is being pulled down next year and re-built on the same small inadeqate site, described by Ofsted as 'a barrier to learning'. In the meantime the children are to be put into huts on a local playing field in temporary accomodation for up to two years at a cost of B#1m. This site will not be able to provide the facilites to teach the full curriculum and our valuable IT equipment is being stored in metal containers on the same site. We have been told that if we want better facilites for the temporary school, it will come off the budjet for the permanent school. This frugality in the temporary school is not much help to years 5 and 6 who will never benefit from their new school. Our 'choice' is for the permanent build to be on the back of the temporary site, but the council have refused this. We want our children to be taught in an surroundings that is not a 'barrier to learning'. Our 'choice' is for our children to be taught in an environment that is appropriate to modern day education. Our 'choice' is for the children to finally have a playing field of their own - not one shared with dogs and litter. Do you think Michael Howard will take our choices into consideration?
