Save Warrington FutureTech
Please sign to help save Future Tech. A wonderful school which is closing and leaving our children with the prospect of transferring in the middle of their GCSEs. We would like Lord Nash to reconsider and allow it to stay open at least for one more school year. Our children deserve this consideration.
Why is this important?
FutureTech is an excellent provision for the children of Warrington who believed in and chose a completely different approach to learning. It's unique selling point was small numbers, small class sizes and work experience. Numbers for the school may be low but the grass roots difference that it is and has made to those attending is imperative for our town. Plus the intake number was originally set at 200 (changed to 300) and currently has 187 students. Some (NOT ALL) of the children there did not engage in the schools that they have left, for a myriad of reasons but under FutureTechs tuition and guidance have engage with education again and gained confidence and self worth beyond measure.
These kids will now be left to find new school placements (often to places that will not offer the subjects they are taking now) and will be disrupted right in the middle of their preparation for their GCSE's.
How it will be delivered
Yes to Lord Nash
Not sure which format this will take yet
