Letter: Education cash
He failed to produce any educational reasons for the decision. He says head teachers should be free to adopt the best educational system for their schools, but that is not what has happened. The council decided all PT posts should go, whether schools want that or not.
I agree that, when cash is in short supply, it is a matter of priorities, but I understand that the Lib Dem/SNP administration rejected an alternative budget which would have saved the same amount of money without attacking the education of our young people.
Our young people really are getting a raw deal at present in all sorts of ways.
