Welsh Conservatives will tomorrow urge the Assembly Government to ensure that full consultation is held ahead of proposed school closures.
Speaking ahead of the party’s Opposition debate in the National Assembly, Shadow Minister for Education Paul Davies AM said:
“It is fundamental that we ensure that before a school is closed, a proper and robust consultation process should be conducted.
“Consultation must be put in place at an early stage of a proposed school closure.
“The Assembly Government needs to establish a clearer schools closure strategy that listens to all concerns and ensures that all children in Wales are able to access a first class education.
“I would urge the Minister to re-evaluate the current consultation process with immediate effect.”
