St Tudy school update

It's going to be a busy fortnight ahead of the next Cornwall Council Cabinet meeting on 14th April, as education officials and St Tudy school governors and community activists try to thrash out a form of words on which they can agree. Both sides say the first face-to-face meeting was a success - but more meetings will be needed to find a recommendation with mutual support.

In St Tudy they want a new school. County Hall fears this could add to Cornwall's 5,000 surplus primary school places. The policy differences are quite fundamental and squaring this circle won't be easy.
