I FELT I must write in reply to the article “Council struggles to find primary places”.

I cannot believe the education department are even thinking of adding a class to Hill View Primary school and taking away the library.

My own children went to this school and now my granddaughter and it is an excellent school.

To take away the library and cram more children into what is already a very limited space is criminal. With an emphasis on literacy as the basis for every subject, surely these children will be at a distinct disadvantage and standards will drop.

Added to this, it is one of the few schools in the area without access to its own playing field.

If these measures are to be temporary, surely it would be better to use only schools with their own ground where portable buildings can be sited.

I imagine that the wonderful staff at the school are feeling very let down.
