Community concerns about botched calculations for Dargavel Primary School – which date back several years – have finally been heard by Renfrewshire Council.
Provost Lorraine Cameron apologised to David Woodrow, chair of Bishopton Community Council, and other residents after a review into the mistakes said their serious reservations about projections for the school in Arrochar Drive were “brushed aside”.
An investigation into the errors, which was conducted by former local government chief executive David Bowles, said the group could see that a plan for a school of around 440 pupils was “inadequate” before the 2018 Section 75 agreement was signed.
