to create a 600-pupil facility on the plot currently occupied by the former Tulketh High School, on Tag Lane in Ingol.However, the authority says that the responses it received suggest parents would rather see a new school spring up elsewhere.
Jayne Rear added that the authority was “considering [its] options and consulting with partners”, but the Conservative politician added that the Tulketh High proposal was still being kept in reserve as “a backstop”.As the Local Democracy Reporting Service revealed just before Christmas, when the consultation began, councillors were quick to express concern at the proposed location, which they claimed would require pupils to travel further to school than they would otherwise have had to.
“Parents are wondering what to do and people are wondering whether they should move into this area – and whether we will get the schools that we were promised. It’s just been a nightmare for years and the Tories just don’t seem to be able to get a handle on it,” County Cllr Potter said. Regarding the high school plans, he added: “For me, it needs to go across towards Higher Bartle to serve the new developments over there – and it looks to me like that is what they are considering at this moment in time.
