Primary School Places

At the Planning Committee last night, the issue of school places came up as part of the debate on building a new primary school at the back of Wembley High.  The long term picture remains bleak, with the Council having to undertake a major building programme just to keep pace, but at the beginning of February, Brent had managed to offer places to all the children on its books.  We still need more places because the number of under fives has increased hugely, and they will require school places, but the progress made in the short term is impressive.
