So lovely to be able to have our Eid Picnic @CardenPrimary @CardenPta again. Eid Mubarak!
Pans will NOT be cut at any of the seven primary schools under threat. We had to shout loudly and spend hours going through the data and reading reports and make speeches in order to make this happen. It worked. Well done everyone involved @BrightonSave
Only the councillors in the room can vote.
There is unanimous agreement, the PANs will NOT be cut #LDreporter #Brighton #Hove @BrightonSave @Cardenthriving @RudyardSchool @WoodingdeanPS @Stand4Bevendean @ColdeanRocks

Triple front of @BrightonIndy this week. I'm sure the double page inside will make @BrightonSave @Cardenthriving @WoodingdeanPS and @RudyardSchool very happy today.
Breaking news after this was printed last night was Aldi with its planning application. #LDreporter #Brighton #Hove
🙏🏻Thanks to our fab MP @CarolineLucas for her written question to @educationgovuk @nadhimzahawi about making the Published Admission Numbers fairer >> bit.ly/3GZIhBx
This affects the whole of the UK as birth rate drops, not just Brighton.

.@CardenPrimary was established in 1948, a few months after the NHS came into existence.
In our roots is the understanding that together we can thrive.
Many govs & massive social change, but helping kids thrive is at heart of our amazing school.

For anyone who missed the lengthy debate following the schools admissions petitions, I curated them here pearltrees.com/sarahbookerle… #LDreporter #Brighton #Hove @WoodingdeanPS @Cardenthriving

This was me this evening, presenting a petition at a full council meeting. Quite nerve wracking but hopefully worth it. @Cardenthriving
Laura Bissonnet speaks for Carden. She lives and works in Hollingbury and teaches at Patcham High. There are families behind parent's data. A parent who moved from Whitehawk to Patcham would have found transport hard. #LDreporter #Brigthon #Hove
Another amazing @CardenPrimary consultation this evening.Parents have spent so much time and energy on this. @MayorOfficeBHCC must allow each school with a petition to have it’s full 15 minutes discussion at full council tomorrow. #democracy @Stand4Bevendean

4/4 @RudyardSchool is also part of the consultation and has a staggering 38% of children on the SEND register. What will be the impact on our vulnerable children and the financial cost. @BrightonHoveCC has already over spent £400,000 on SEND provision. Will PAN reduction help?

3/4 @CardenPrimary @Cardenthriving This school is also part of the consultation and again has a specialist speech and language centre. Bevendean and Carden are both classed as special schools. They are also both shining examples of success.

We hope that those groups supporting our children with SEND are aware of the council's proposals to reduce PAN? Schools being targeted have the highest proportion of children from disadvantaged backgrounds and have SEND. @AmazeSussex @PaCCBrighton
