Congratulations to Caroline Peet and the Queen Edith’s Federation Team, who have won the contest to run the new primary school on Gunhild Way.

At the County Council Cabinet meeting at Shire Hall yesterday, councillors voted unanimously for the Queen Edith’s Federation to run the new school.

I and my colleagues Geoff, Viki and Jean are delighted by the county council’s decision to back the project. The Federation has worked incredibly hard to put the bid together and the 300+ signatures show what incredible support they have from local parents.

Queen Edith’s already has two very good primary schools, the existing Queen Edith’s on Godwin Way, and Morley Memorial on Blinco Grove — but there are too many children and not enough places, so it will be fantastic to have a third school to address this need.

Congratulations to everyone for the support and enthusiasm they showed for this project.
