General Overview and Scrutiny Committee Member

Wandsworth Council

The Wandsworth Council's General Overview and Scrutiny Committee convened to discuss the proposed closure of Bradstow Community Special School in Kent. After hearing arguments for and against the closure, the committee voted to take no further action, effectively allowing the Cabinet's decision to close the school to proceed. This decision was made despite concerns raised about the impact on vulnerable children and the financial implications for the council.
