We the undersigned are strongly opposed to the proposed closure of Church Lawton Primary School. Our unique and wonderful school is a valuable community resource and a place where there are many happy and fulfilled children. Its closure would also deal a blow to the local community as we are hosts for the over 60s club and the village fete.

Our school provides a welcoming and supportive environment for all children and also has a particular expertise for children with Special Educational Needs. We do not see why our parental choice should be removed and our children should be forced to disrupt their education.

We ask you to consider our alternative proposals.
