Don't delay the new Ysgol Pendref School
Stop the delay to the new one site Ysgol Pendref School as promised following the two school merger in 2012 and deliver the new building on schedule.
Why is this important?
Ysgol Heulfre merged with neighbouring Ysgol Gwaenynog to form Ysgol Pendref in 2012 and we were promised a new building by 2019, with feasibility works beginning in 2014.
Denbighshire County Council have now back tracked on their promises, saying the costs are too high and that the school must wait for the next round of schools funding. This is despite the dates being a condition to the merger.
It now looks likely that the new school will not be ready until 2024 if the Council gets it's way.
This will have a major impact on our childrens education and ultimatley their futures. With more homes due to be built in the area, class sizes growing and cuts to schools budgets this delay cannot be allowed to happen and the Council must be held to account for their promises. The old site is not fit for purpose in any way.
As a parent, I cannot stand by and do nothing. We all need to stand together and fight for our children and their futures before it's too late.
