Since 2009 we've been blogging and campaigning against BCBC Bridgend Council to leave the catchment area of Maes Yr Haul alone.
After many consultations , meetings with residents, meetings with the school governors, the council have decided to ignore the advice at these meetings and push forward the change in catchment.
The cost of purchasing land and the construction of a safe route to school is still unresolved and this could lead to large sums of public money being invested in yet another footpath instead of our borough school services.
Some recommendations around the sibling rule changes for admissions policies has been mentioned and we'll track that issue through the next year to ensure the council stick by their promises!
