The thought process which concludes that the way to remedy an underperforming secondary school sector is to decimate an overperforming primary sector beggars belief. The real effect will be to undermine excellent local primary education, thus reducing the childrens’ capabilities when they enter secondary school and therefore most likely reduce secondary standards still further.
The council must concentrate on the underperforming secondary sector and come up with innovative solutions e.g. build on the excellence of the Isle of Wight College as the basis for a six form college; get Ryde School to take over one or more failing comprehensive; let primaries take pupils to age 11 and secondaries from 11 to 16.
Primary schools are one of the four basic pillars of a local community. Take it away and that community becomes a suburb with no heart or soul. I thought the Tories were understanding of rural communities and their needs - this proposed action strikes at the heart of all such communities on the Island - it is bad educationally and bad socially. THE COUNCIL MUST THINK AGAIN
Have these members of the council actually seen with their own eyes the quality of teaching in our primary schools and the happiness of our children and their willingness to learn. The island should be proud of how well these schools are doing and bite the bullet in realising how awfull the island secondary education is.
St.Georges in Arreton has done nothing but progress throughout the years, the quality of teaching is excellent aswell as the building and it’s grounds. The children of the community and connecting communities have a real sense of worth from being within a close net church environment and I believe it is complete madness to take this away. Does anyone realise how much trauma some of these children will go throw by being uprooted from they’re present school environment?
Primary schools are the key to how children perform later on in education, it is the basis of they’re social, emotional and interlectuall development throughout life. The island pre-schools offer a gentle transition through to reception classes but without these primary schools there will be no pre-schools. Without some of these schools there are no buildings for mother n toddler groups, play groups or pre-schools as many of them are held together with the support of the local schools. Where does it end?
Local Primary Schools are part of the community. They are places where our children learn to communicate; learn basic education principles, and learn to socialise with their peers in a trusted and familiar environment. This is especially important for children who have some learning disabilities. The knock-on effect of families under pressure when their young ones would have to travel to another location, questionable class sizes and after-school clubs, would be detrimental to the children’s well-being.
I think it is a very bad discision to close down and change our schools these primary schools are a big part of the communities and the effect of closing these schools will be very disrupting to everyone. Have you thought of all the other implications it also affects Baby clinics, Pre schools, After school clubs, Holiday clubs as well as other uses.
It will cause more traffic problems due to everyone having to get their children to schools outside of their areas.
I was in the last change of the schools when they changed from secondary to high schools it was very disturbing and there was a lot of problems .
Please just leave well alone.
without these facilities,our children will become more likely to become more statistics towards crime later,their whole aspect of life mistrust adults they lie.preschools nurseries, primary schools carbon footprints everything will change create more teenage suicides unbalanced lives,instil fear into their hearts and minds at early ages some children that come from broken homes or disturbed family life will grow more into their own worlds do we want to fill our hospitals with broken children i agree to change but when abraham took his son up the mountain to sacrifice him to God as the higher authourity to have respect for God. must we then have respect for those that will destroy our childrens minds if so let the destruction be on those heads at county hall with the policies in their hands R.I.P. God bless our children. I PRAY FOR THEIR SOULS MINDS AND BODIES.thru JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD FORGIVE THEM FATHER FOR THEY KNOW NOT WHAT THEY DO. amen.please all pray for our schools our children
Am not in agreement with the three options on closure of primary schools as they have good ofsted reports and are part of the local community.The safe transporting of preschool and primary age children is a major difficulty for parents with two or more small children as well as a main worry for their safety. More time needs to be given to listen to the teachers parents and the future increase in children with the expantion of building new properties nearby.In some cases the amalgermation of management between schools could be a better option.

Q. How do you raise KS2 results?
A. Give years 5 & 6 to the existing primaries.(Deals with the unfilled places problem too.)
Perhaps the new Children’s Services Motto should be:-
Every Child Matters- unless you’re a smaller or rural school pupil.
