Tonight I attended, along with a large number of parents, an open meeting at Harris Academy held by the Parent Council to update parents of both the school and its feeder primaries about the proposals to upgrade the building.Jim Thewliss, Head Teacher, gave an excellent resume of the process thus far and how the upgrading is likely to proceed. There was then a question and answer session, covering issues like the decant arrangements during refurbishment, transport arrangements, etc.
There will be a number of further consultation meetings with parents in the months ahead as the refurbishment process moves forward.
