Nottinghamshire Schools Face Capacity Crisis | Nottingham News
from Nottingham News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Nottinghamshire is in a major crunch as hundreds of kids could miss out on local secondary school places by September 2027, thanks to slashed government funding and soaring student numbers. Despite adding over 1,700 new spots since 2022, the council’s paused £10 million in expansion projects. Officials are urgently lobbying MPs and the Education Secretary, warning costs are outpacing funding—and schools are ready to build if cash arrives. Parents are worried, with projections showing up to 330 kids could be bussed out of their neighborhoods by 2029. The council’s got the plans, the data, and the track record—just needs the money to deliver. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
