To all Bristol North parents who will be applying for Secondary School places for their children in 2014 - we need your support.

The shortage of Secondary School places in our area is getting worse. As we have seen a huge increase in Primary demand this is filtering through to the Secondary School system and making the problem even worse.... now is the time to act to provide much needed additional places in our area. This can not wait. 

We intend to apply to the Department of Education for an All-through school on the St. Ursula's site in Westbury-on-Trym.

We need your support - please sign this petition to show that you support the provision of extra secondary school places in the North Bristol.

We believe that an all-through-school on the St. Ursula's site is the best and most-likely way to obtain additional secondary school places. Some of those places will have to be offered to the children at the primary school on site (thereby freeing up places at other schools which would otherwise be taken up by them), but it will also provide additional new places for our children in the local area.
