Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Roger Williams (Liberal Democrat), on Tuesday, 17 March 2015, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 3 members in total.


SECONDARY EDUCATION IN POWYS

That this House views with concern the proposals of Powys County Council to close secondary schools and sixth forms in Brecon and Radnorshire; notes that closing schools will add to the cost of transport and very long journey times for pupils; believes that many pupils will opt to be educated across the border in England because of travel times; and urges Powys County Council to commission a re-assessment of secondary education right across the county and to defer any decision-making until all the consequences of those proposals have been fully considered.
