There are just two days left for people to take part in the consultation over the future of closure-threatened St Barnabas Primary School in Montpelier. Distraught parents have been campaigning locally and have now gathered over 2,000 signatures in support of keeping the school open.
A final decision on its future will be made in February at a Bristol City Council cabinet meeting. The results of the consultation will be considered before any decisions are made.
Parents have complained of a lack of communication and fear there will not be places for all children to attend local primary schools. And some of the parents with SEND children are concerned that if forced to leave, they will struggle to find a suitable mainstream alternative.
