All Set for a Meeting with the Secretary of State for Education
July 21, 2010 9:44 PM
I look forward to making the case tomorrow for investment in the Borough's schools
Tomorrow I will join other representatives from the Borough including the MP for Bedford & Kempston and the sponsor organisations of the Bedford Academy for a meeting with Secretary of state for education Michael Gove. The meeting is being held in the wake of the Government's cancellation of the Building Schools for the Future project. It provides an opportunity to make Mr Gove aware of the circumstances in Bedford Borough following the removal of all Borough Schools from the BSF programme bar the Bedford Academy, which is 'for discussion,' and comes as the Government embarks on a review of capital investment in schools.
I look forward to this opportunity to stress to the Secretary of State the fundamental need for investment in schools in Bedford Borough. It is even more important in the current climate, while overall cuts are being made nationally, that we make the case for investment which will help bring the improvement in education standards which we all want to see.
