Dear Parents
Some of you may be aware of the dire budget announcement given to schools last week. For Strandtown this means we have to make £50,000 to £60,000 worth of cuts in 2018/2019. Our pupils deserve better than this!
Some of you kindly wrote to the local policitians last year. I would urge you to contact them again with the challenge “as your voting constituents, what steps are you taking to address the chronic funding crisis in schools?“ They need prompted into action to ensure the Department of Education receive the message loud and clear that this situation is untenable.
Could I strongly appeal to you to register any entitlement to Free School Meals? Your child does not have to take the school meals but additional numbers give us access to additional much needed funds.
Thank you for all your support. Together and in partnership we will strive for a better provision.
Regards,
Mrs Hutchinson (Principal)
