Park Street and Brunswick Schools

HC Deb 23 February 1979 vol 963 c364W

Mr. Rhodes James

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science when she proposes to announce her decision on the proposed closures of Park Street and Brunswick schools in the city of Cambridge; and if she will make a statement.

Miss Margaret Jackson

The Cambridgeshire education authority gave public notice of its intention to close the Park Street and Brunswick schools on 24 January 1979. My right hon. Friend cannot consider her decision on these proposals and others related to the organisation of primary education in the city of Cambridge until the statutory two month period for the publication of notices and the submission of objections has expired.
