§ Mr. Rostasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science (1) why she has agreed to proposals to extend the Dallimore Road Primary School, in Kirk Hallam, rather than Ladywood Road Schools; and whether she is satisfied that the views of parents are being adequately taken into consideration;
(2) what representations she has received from Kirk Hallam parents with regard to the future of primary education in the area; and what action she is taking;
(3) whether she has investigated the request made to her by large numbers of parents and the Derbyshire Education Authority to extend the Ladywood Road Primary School in Kirk Hallam.
§ Mr. St. John-StevasNo proposals to extend primary schools in Kirk Hallam have been made to my right hon. Friend by the Derbyshire Education Authority. The representations made by the Parents' Action Committee about extending the Ladywood Primary School, forwarded to the Department by my hon. Friend, have been carefully studied and a letter setting out the position as fully as possible was sent to him on 22nd May.
