This building needs to stay a school. Heathfield has endured way too many insults thus far.

With the amount of building developments that are happening in this area we now more than ever need additional schooling. This building has all the facilities ready to hand. Swimming pool, playing fields, school rooms, canteen, gym etc. To knock it down simply doesn't make financial sense.

This has been a renowned education establishment for Earl Shilton, Barwell and the surrounding villages for nearly 80 years. This needs to continue, as so many students have experienced a positive impact from Heathfield. With the major housing developments planned for the area, it wouldn't make sense to knock this building down to make way for houses, only to realise that a new school would need to be built in order to cater for the number of new families moving into the area.

This is a lovely building. It would be a travesty to knock it down when primary schools are full and there will be more pupils when the new houses are built.

3 generations of my family have been educated at Heathfield and have so many very happy memories of our time there. To continue as a school would be the most fitting tribute to both teachers and pupils.

I was once a pupil at heathfeild high, I was saddened to see it close after all these years, when I heard people saying it's going to be knocked down I was mortified to here, keeping the building and turning it into a infant/juniors school made perfect sense why because there are too many houses being built for family's and people starting them too there is becoming a problem, our schools are over crowded 30+ in a class an awful lot now so in another 5 to 10 years that's going to increase a lot so having heathfeild kept as a school would be just beneficial to our growing future.

Why has this school closed when the area is very clearly lacking schools ! We don't have enough primary schools to start and where do the children go after that ! Dorothy goodman are also looking to build in a very residential area...this site would be perfect for them. Use this school for what is was built for....a school!

This should remain a school in my opinion but I expect that the decision has already been made and this petition is probably futile.

This building is a piece of history, why do we have to keep knocking down important buildings to make houses, put into some other good use, or convert it into flats but keep the building, sad to see this go

It would be a crying shame to knock this place down, but we all know that HBBC don't care about the opinion of local people,just about how much they'll get from some contractor
