We are petitioning the proposed closure of Furness school in Hextable which is a specialist school for children with ASD and also emotional and behavioural issues. Kcc are in consultations with the intention of closing the school due to the number of pupils that attend. However the number of pupils at the school is a very important factor as to why it needs to stay open, this is because our children cannot cope in a bigger school. Kcc are proposing sending our children to a mainstream school with provisions. This is unacceptable and needs to be stopped now.
Below is a link to information on the public consulation.
