On Thursday 2nd October at Shirecliffe Community Centre from 7pm, with the Southey/Owlerton Area Panel, there is to be a joint public meeting about the future of Parkwood High School – whether or not the school should be put forward for ‘academy status’ and so run independently from the Council with support from ‘Edutrust’.
There is a ballot of all parents and carers with children either at Parkwood High or at the local feeder schools (like Pye Bank) to find out what they think. This special Area Panel meeting will be an opportunity for everybody to hear the views for and against Academies, to ask questions and to consider what’s best for Parkwood High School and the children of our area, now and in the future.
The agenda for this meeting can be found on the Council's website.
Please note time change from that advertised, meeting starts at 7pm
