Parents views that the school required expansion to meet local
demand.
Only two negative issues have emerged through the consultation
comments. The first concerning increase in traffic to the school as
numbers of pupils rise. Secondly the impact of the building project
on current pupils with particular emphasis on the sensitivities of
SEN children.
With regards to the proposal to extend the September 2012 admission
arrangements to September 2013, a total of 135 responses were received; 37 for,
