FIRST DAY DISTASTERS

Today saw our children face there first day at the new school in Germiston and yet again Glasgow City Council have let our children down.

we have constantly highlighted the problems with safety on the new route to school yet Glasgow City Council had NO Crossing patrols on the roads apart from the one man left standing outside our old school building clearly to cross over the hundreds of children that won't be going there today.

Not only did we not have crossing patrols but our support teachers were left standing outside our old school building phoning round to find out why the school they were sent to was closed. Glasgow City Council is a disgrace and the councillors should hang there heads in shame over these blunders. God only hopes it improves by tomorrow.

Well done Mr Purcell your right we have all forgotten what you have done because of the smooth transition to our new school YEH RIGHT!!!

Stop Taking Start Giving

some of the parents from Barmulloch Primary are arranging a meeting with the Candidates and Councillors in Glasgow North East and doing a demonstation on the Road they children will now have to walk down to get to the new school we want to ask our politicians to stop taking resources from Barmulloch and start giving back to our community by building us a new school.

Hope its a sucess so far had a reply from almost every candidate to say they will be attending just one to go.

Need to make sure the press are aware of who will be there.

Calls for a change in law

Today I have been writing to some of the committees in the scottish parliament to ask for there support in progressing with a change of law which allows us to give our children adequate space in the classroom to learn.

Health and Safety currently have no legislation that we can find that dictates how much space is needed per child and we are trying to have this changed currently councils go on outdated capacity levels when they are looking at schools for closures and if adequate space was provided per child forcing these capacity levels to be re addressed the council would find it more difficult to close schools with higher roles.

The petition is available for signature at http://www.thepetitionsite.com/8/stop-school-closures.

thank you
