It came out at the UDP meeting some of us attended that their have been discussions in the Council about siting a school in Somerleyton Rd.So far local residents have not had any say in the matter.
After selling off so much land and buildings over the past few years the Council now is finding it hard to get a decent site.The Secondary Schools Campaign in Lambeth is not happy with the Somerleyton Rd site.Its near a railway line,a narrow strip of land,poor access and not big enough to site decent facilities.Also it wont have older children 16+.
Also the community had already been consulted about using the site for a mixture of housing and workshops.Increasing use of the street(and therefore making it safer) and making it fit in with the recently revamped Moorlands estate and the Guiness Trust flats.These plans have been put on "hold".
The Council plans for a school have gradually been leaking out but their has been no consultation that Ive heard about.
The Secondary Schools Campaign in Lambeth are holding a public meeting on Tuesday 16th September at the Jubilee Primary School Tulse Hill Rd at 7 30pm.
