Glasgow Save our Schools Campaign

Hi folks, I'm not a parent myself but I do feel strongly about the issue of the closure of all these primary schools across the city, it's an absolute joke and it seems to be happening with so many basic services, and I'll try and manage along on Thursday to this lobby. Incidentally is that to meet up at the city chambers at 12pm? Myself and few others involved in the 'Burgh Angel' free newsheet for Maryhill/Woodside/Possil (covering community news) were at the recent unity march through the West End where I think we spoke to Anthea and a few others, and we'd really like to cover as much of the campaign across Glasgow as possible in our forthcoming edition (which currently reaches a lot of the shops and the libraries in the area), so if anyone is interested in contributing they can email me at the address below, otherwise I'll see and come along on Thursday with my dictaphone. We'd also be quite happy to plug any events organised by the campaign. Nick ('Burgh Angel')

its disgraceful that they are even concidering shutting down the schools.i went to temple primary school.not only was it a welcoming enviornment the kids could learn.if the kids have to go to knightswood there will be the same overcrowding as secondary schols and too lare class sizes.how are kids who struggle going to lean .how are the teachers going to find the time to help every single child when they have such a large demanding class.its ridiculous .i grew up in that school.that and of course they are turning it as usual into housing nevermind the fact that it should have been used for better thin g like youth halls or play areas for kids to go to.it won't be the same with temple being housing. no doubt theyll have sold the pitch to act as a car park.no wonder kids are getting unfit the've nowhere else to go!
