We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Stop the merging of Fairfield and Kingstone High Schools, Herefordshire. More details
Submitted by Eleanor Wright of Cambridge University – Deadline to sign up by: 25 October 2008 – Signatures: 285
Herefordshire County Council propose to merge Fairfield High School with Kingstone High School. Currently the thoughts are to close both schools and build a brand new school with a capacity slightly less of the two current schools combined.
This is proposed on the basis of empty places within the schools.
Fairfield High School is a unique and highly successful school, achieving 'outstanding' ratings from OFSTED and regularly sits in the top 50 UK state comprehensives. A merge will bring no benefit to any pupil.
