Dear Chair of Governors and the Governing Body

As parents/carers of children at Drayton Green Primary School we are writing to you to express our dismay and concern over the forthcoming strike action on 20/21 June and potential further dates.

Whilst we appreciate the complexities of the situation and the difficulties both sides face, we don't understand why it appears that the governors are not communicating with the school community about potential academy status.

The school community would like the Governing Body to hold an information meeting before the end of the academic year so that we can understand your concerns and be informed about any investigations that are taking place and what outcomes you hope to achieve.  The school community need reassurance that their concerns matter and that the Governing Body will listen to them.  The lack of information to date has left many to make the assumption that there is nothing to discuss as decisions have already been made.

Please also recognise this letter as a formal complaint for allowing the situation to reach a point where our children are now being denied schooling.

Yours sincerely

Drayton Green Primary School Parents & Carers
