Neighbours of a school with the most noise complaints in Salford claim that the council has abandoned them in their plight for peace and quiet on weekends. Kerem Shloime Primary School For Boys is open six days a week, only closing during the Sabbath, and has unlimited playtimes.
The Orthodox Jewish boys' school is also allowed to operate on Bank Holidays. The school's playground, a former car park, borders the back gardens of neighbouring houses with nothing but a narrow street separating them.
Neighbours claim the close proximity the school has to their houses and the extra playtimes causes major disturbance for them in Broughton, with excessive noise throughout the day and traffic.
