A controversial consultation that could lead to children with special educational needs being relocated across Liverpool ends tomorrow.
Since March, Liverpool Council has engaged in a public engagement exercise as it attempts to tackle the “dramatic increase” in need for school places. As part of the proposals, parents, guardians and education stakeholders have been asked for their views on the future of three city special schools and pupil referral units.
The plans asked for input on the possibility of Bank View School on Long Lane relocating 14 miles away to Parklands in Speke. The consultation also asked for views on moving Princes School on Selborne Street to Redbridge School on Long Lane, while Redbridge would move into Bank View as they occupy the same site.
