St Tudy and St Mabyn to make voices heard

Commenting as ballot papers are sent out for the referendum on the future of village schools in St Tudy and St Mabyn, North Cornwall’s MP, Dan Rogerson said:

“I urge people in both villages to make their voices heard.

“It’s clear from the conversations I’ve had with parents that the Council’s favoured solution of opening a school outside both villages is simply not acceptable to either community.

“A referendum, organised through the Electoral Reform Society, is a brilliant way to give the villages a voice, and the Hands Off Our Schools Group is to be congratulated for setting it up.

“The Council and the Diocese have a duty to listen to the results.”
