we need more schools to match the amount of housing.
There needs to be a law against building housing estates with out there being educational spaces for children and young adults in local schools. Councils and governments should NOT be excepting new large planning permissions for housing estates with out offering educational and healthcare needs.
Why is this important?
I moved into a small village over a year ago and couldn't get my youngest into the local primary school. it took over a year. In fact over a 3 mile radius none of the schools could accommodate both my primary school aged children, resulting in them going to different primary schools. The local council have given permission to 3 different housing plans for over 300 houses on separate estates 1 village. The local school can only taken in 30 pupils per class with only 1 class per year, there isn't room in the local school for the children in the village already, with many kids having to travel over 1-2 miles to get to school. No 8 year old child should have to walk 2.8 miles one way to school because anything under 3 miles is classified as walking distance. with the amount of traffic and dangers around this should also be change. Children are our future, we need to make some changes to help them reach there full potential. PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME MAKE A CHANGE TO PROTECTION CHILDRENS FUTURES
