Michael Gove has been the most divisive Education Secretary in living memory. He has undermined the teaching profession and the education system and set children up to fail. We believe his repeated grave errors of judgement make him unfit to lead the country and we do not wish to serve a government with him at its head.

Because its segregating us from other years and keeping us enclosed in a small space

The UK is one of the science power-houses in the world. We attract and produce some of the best scientists and contribute greatly to increasingly important scientific areas including cancer, bacterial resistance, renewable energy and food research as well as a whole host of research areas that span all areas of science, technology and engineering. Leaving the EU has the worrying potential to restrict the amount of funding these research areas get, causing the UK to fall behind in world leading research but also slowing scientific progress. The UK is part of EU funded projects such as Horizon 2020. As a PhD student in cancer research I have seen first hand in the labs the reaction to the UK leaving the EU. Everyone is worried about what this means for science here and whether we'll be able to maintain our excellent work. This petition is to raise awareness in the hope that we can get a deal whereby scientists and funding can move between countries as easily as possible in order for research to progress as it always has done.

The schools are stronger together and share the same aspirations. The decision for the Infants to join a different Multi Academy Trust has no merit or benefit for the children. Two schools being run by separate Trusts will have an impact on the children and families.

What parent wants their child to be taught by an unqualified teacher? What teacher wants to have a dodgy qualification? It is vitally important that teachers are properly qualified and accredited; the new White Paper "Educational Excellence Everywhere" proposes that Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) should be abolished and replaced with an unspecified qualification. This will mean that teachers up and down the country will not have the same, equivalent qualification or be properly qualified. Universities are acknowledged by a great deal of research as being the best arbiters of whether a teacher should receive QTS, making judgements on new teachers based on national standards. The abolishing of these national standards -- which is proposed in the White Paper -- will mean that children will receive a worse education because they won't be taught by properly qualified teachers.

Sally the local lollipop lady for my sons school Burraton primary school is being cut. People drive too fast along the stretch of road outside the school and without her in place it is dangerous for the children. The council have decided to cut 19 sites throughout Cornwall and without these men and women in place it is dangerous for the children. There are no alternative crossings for the children to use in the area. Always polite and curtious the lollipop men and women are not just a safe way to help the children cross the road but also help teach Road safety and manners. Without them in place I believe we will see an increase in accidents and even deaths along the stretches of roads they patrol. The 19 sites are 1 REDRUTH, WEST TREWIRGIE ROAD 2 DELABOLE O/S SCHOOL 3 SALTASH, LISKEARD ROAD 4 ST COLUMB MAJOR, NEWQUAY ROAD 5 REDRUTH, JNCT CLINTON ROAD HEANTON TCE 6 TROON 7 SALTASH BURRATON, FAIREMEAD ROAD 8 CALLINGTON NEW ROAD 9 FALMOUTH ALBONY ROAD 10 DOBWALLS ON CROSSROAD 11 NEWQUAY, ST COLUMB MINOR ON PORTHBEAN ROAD 12 SENNEN 13 ST AUSTELL, MOUNT CHARLES WOODLAND ROAD 14 CAMELFORD CLEASE ROAD 15 NANPEAN 16 CAMBOURNE FOUNDRY ROAD 17 CAMBOURNE DOLCOATH ROAD 18 NEWQUAY TRENANCE ROAD 19 NEWQUAY EDGECUMBE AVENUE Please everyone sign and share this

This is extremely important as children's safety is paramount. The Council say that the Middlewood Way is safe enough for children to walk, but its not. There are many reasons that they have obviously not taken into consideration!

The London Borough of Redbridge has recently announced that they will introduce a "pilot scheme", without consultation, to force disabled children who need a door to door minibus service between home and school to instead go to a muster point on a main road and wait to be collected by a coach Children with severe disabilities will no longer be collected from their homes to attend school and instead will have to make their own way to points on main roads where they will be collected and dropped off. These children have various disabilities and have been identified by the council as in need of this service. The Chair of Children Services, said in January that there would be no changes without consultation, yet we have just been told this will now happen in September as a "pilot".

OWNERS of a woodland education centre near Marlborough are being forced to demolish it this week after Wiltshire Council refused to give it planning permission for change of use. Martin Gibson, who owns The Grove Woodland Centre, and team member Mark Norcliffe are heartbroken that the centre which helps youngsters learn through play has had to close after parish council objections about traffic using the narrow country lanes. The parish council objected to the plans without consulting with the wider communtiy. Mr Norcliffe, 43, a volunteer helped build the centre. He said: "I have been told the school must be shut down, taken apart and fully dismantled. I am going to be taking down some of it but it is truly heart-breaking.” We used to have a lot of children who came here from the surrounding area. They were absolutely wonderful, they really enjoyed it here. We had large groups of children come weekly to take part in a range of different activities. We had tree houses, assault courses, play areas and a stage and even birds." The centre, at Thicketts Road, Mildenhall, ran courses offering children and adults the chance to experience forest living, including learning how to make fires using bow drills, build shelters and sleep out under the stars. Up to 70 youngsters a week were enjoying the courses, and a Friday-night adults session was popular with local people. But the centre has had to close after Wiltshire Council ruled the amount of traffic it was causing was a danger to other road users. Mr Gibson said he hoped to re-open the centre in the future if he can resolve the traffic issues with the council. “I have a farm and it has some lovely woodlands in it and I have always wanted to find a way of getting kids to play in the woods. “We came up with an idea of hosting birthday parties and school trips and and it was working out really well. We then applied for planning permission and we got turned down because the traffic impact was severe. All my neighbours objected because they thought there would be too much traffic but if the road is unsuitable then surely something needs to be done? A spokesman for Mildenhall Parish Council said this week: "The Parish Council will be pleased to hear the Woodland Centre will close because the site is unsuitable on account of serious access difficulties." When the application was considered by councillors, the parish council said it supported the principle and aims of the centre but were: "Unanimously opposed to any additional vehicular traffic on the access roads from Mildenhall and Stitchcombe, which are already causing anxiety to local residents and users of the newly-refurbished playpark. Their experience has convinced them that additional traffic on these lanes is dangerous and against the spirit of the woodland adventure." This is such sad and devastating news for the community of Marlborough, surrounding areas and the staff who've worked with so so hard with bare hands and very little resources to develop this fantastic forest school and community woodland at Grove Farm. On taking a gentle amble through the beautiful copse, listening to the birds, spotting the occasional, nuthatch, deer and muntjac, the level of passion, commitment and dedication that's been invested in developing such a striking and well needed facility is evident to see. In recent years this centre has grown with the natural surroundings, evolve and flourish in synergy with nature and complimenting the beautiful landscape at Grove Farm. The facility has attracted local visitors of all ages together with people from further afield, all of whom are astounded at it's beauty and amazed at the low impact structures that have been built sympathetically in partnership with nature. The woodland copse at Grove Farm is regarded as a fine example and beacon of good practice of what can be achieved with very little but the resources and building materials provided by nature on the site on which it stands. Mark Norcliffe has designed and built all the structures by his own hand, without the use of mains electricity or power tools, with very little in terms of finances and using only materials kindly provided by nature. The magnificence of not only the structures, but paths and walkways developed at Grove Farm are testament to his passion and commitment to work sensitively with nature and provide a facility where people of all ages and backgrounds can play, learn about nature and share skills from one another in a beautiful safe environment. The 3 core staff of Builder, Falconer and Forest School Instructor have worked with dedication, blood sweat and tears to develop this fantastic sanctuary that is a centre for learning and play for people of all ages, backgrounds and abilities. It is deplorable that non sensical NIMBYism prevails when such community facilities are so desperately needed for children and adults alike. It's true what they say "You don't know what you've got 'till it's gone". SAVE GROVE FARM COMMUNITY WOODLAND

We need far more spaces for bees to breed and forage - instead of destroying their habi­tats, how about some serious Millbrook bee care! Many in our community take joy in the grasses, wild flowers and wildlife that are increasing here by the year. Red clover, self heal, violets, kidney vetch, cow parsley, silverweed, forget-me-nots, buttercups, daisys, dandelions and even cuckoo flower (lady’s smock) love the dampish grasses along the fence line! Leaving it un-cut does not cause obstruction with sight-line to traffic, dogs must be on leads here, so no dog mess and I've never seen it with any rubbish! What I do see is a fantastic educational resource for our children, a place of bees, butterflies and sloe worms - and a big buzzard that lives in the trees above! DON'T DESTROY THEIR HABITAT!

Over the last 30-odd years, 101 has helped so many children, in an area where playgroups (as opposed to private nurseries) are rare. The fees are affordable and the atmosphere calm and caring. 101 helps children learn valuable social skills, making for a smooth transition to school. If 101 cannot continue, there are very few alternatives in the Crouch End area for parents who want a playgroup and not full-time child care.

It is important because it gives students confidence about what is going to happen after school. These lessons will help students in emergency situations. Also it will improve their communication skills and boost their confidence.
