Story: Ian Clifford
Parents have voted by over 2 to 1 in favour of Parkwood School becoming an Academy, but on a low turnout.
Returns from the Electoral Reform Services showed that 199 parents voted yes (70.5% of the vote), while 83 voted no – 29.4%. The turnout was 23.9%.
Parents of Parkwood pupils and those with pupils at feeder primary schools (including Pye Bank) were given a vote on the Academy proposal by the Liberal-Democrat administration.
