Clare goes to No. 10!
Representatives of the Stour Valley Educational Trust (SVET) and C.L.A.R.E went to No 10 Downing Street this week at the invitation of the Prime Minister.
SVET has submitted a proposal to create a new 11-16 school on the Clare Middle School site commencing in September 2011. The school will be named Stour Valley Community School and as well as attracting children for the current feeder primary schools in Clare, Cavendish, Glemsford, Hartest, Hundon and Wickhambrook, it is expected that pupils from across the border in Essex will be attracted to the school too.
Trustees of SVET Keith Haisman, Patrick Bell and Derek Blake were accompanied by Diana Sharp, Chair of C.L.A.R.E. Our group was able to spend time in the Cabinet Room with David Cameron and Michael Gove and they gave commitments that they will will provide the decisions and resources to make sure that Stour Valley Community School will open in September 2010 and that it will be a school of which the whole community can be truly proud.
A Public Meeting will be held on Wednesday 21 July at 7pm in Clare Middle School to update all parents and the community of the progress which the group has made towards opening the school in September 2011, and the positive implications for the children in our community.
