Support Kane To Be Accepted Into The Colne Community School

Please let this young lad stay in the school area. His life would be so difficult if he was sent out of the catchment.

How can a child from Brightlingsea be refused a place in the secondary school in the town they live? Surely the criteria for the catchment area must give him priority over children who have to be bused in from surrounding villages?

Good Luck

Idiotic.

This is a local school for local people so why are places given to outside the catchment when not enough for children entitled to a place at the towns school. Scandalous

Disgrace

This is typical of the colne I'm afraid and that's through experience fight for your child to go their don't just except that this has to happen refuse the other school and involve your mp I did and they had to listen he was expelled from the colne but I made them put him a school that would help him not on the scrap heap don't give up xx

I think it is outrageous that B'sea children are being sent to Colchester when they have a school on their doorstep.

How stressful for this young man and his mum. Ridiculous!!!

I've never heard anything like this. Expecting an autistic youngster to travel to Colchester by bus for schooling when there's a secondary school in his town

This is disgusting Kane deserves a place at his local school

I hope you get the support needed for your son to be accepted.

All children brought up in Brightlingsea should be offered a place there. It's crazy to make a child travel out of their comfort zone for no good reason

Let him go to the Colne school!

I have an autistic granddaughter so I empathise.

Let him in from Harvey durling

Why isnt he allowed in colne school?

I cannot believe that this can happen. I hope things work out for you both.

Our local school should support our local children

Everyone who lives in brightlingsea should be offered a place at the colne no ifs or buts
