We want action now to repair Milngavie Primary.

The school has been neglected by East Dunbartonshire Council for years. The council is now proposing to indefinitely postpone its much-needed refurbishment.

The current condition of the school poses a risk to the health and safety of pupils and staff.

There is mould in the school, mushrooms growing in the toilets and holes in the roof. Children come home every day smelling damp, some have burnt their legs on radiators and others have got wet while sitting at their desks from water coming in through the ceiling.

Our children deserve to learn in an environment that lets them thrive, not one that contains damp and mould.

The repair work at the school needs to be carried out now.

East Dunbartonshire Council has blamed the delay on finances but it approved plans to build a new £85 million Lenzie Academy at the end of last year.

The Scottish Government has provided funding for the new Lenzie Academy. The council and Scottish Government now need to fund the repairs of Milngavie Primary.

Both the council and the Scottish Government are failing our children by delaying the repairs.

Please sign our petition and show your support for repairing and protecting Milngavie Primary.
