Heartache again for children. 62 are without a place at one of our 2 catchment secondary schools & are being scattered to schools across Brighton & beyond. Many, the only child in their class or school Please sign #62needyou

Thank you to everyone who came out in support of @Misplaced62 today, you are all amazing.Thank you @dicpagebrighton for your continued support.Also thank you to @Phelimmac for coming to talk to us face to face. It’s good to finally be listened to. #62needyou
#misplaced62 it's appeals process for us 😓 A stressful situation that could've been prevented by a competent council. I have proof they knew this to be a bulge year in our catchment before the pandemic yet no provisions were made. The knock on effects are huge. We fight on! 💪
@CarolineLucas @ZoeOliviaJohn Health and wellbeing? You have 62 children in THIS city affected by your council decision making and you’ve done NOTHING. You @BHGreens and @bhlabour should be ashamed. @Misplaced62#62needyou
2018: DS and Varndean release a joint statement to accommodate the #Mispaced38 to avoid “unnecessarily unsettling our school communities, adversely impacting accessibility and travel time to schools.” What’s changed? 1/2
@chellemccann@BACA_UK Not sure we understand the question but if it is: if places were available at Patcham and/or BACA would that help? The situation is the same, individual children separated from friends, travelling miles, alone. It’s not about the allocated schools. Never has been. #62needyou
This is NOT, nor has it ever been, about the schools #Misplaced62 have been allocated. Don’t twist their words. This IS about individual children being separated from friendship groups, facing long, multiple journeys. Alone. Following a year of lockdown and anxiety. #mentalhealth
Sending children on multiple bus journeys, through city centre, to get to school, exposing them to high-levels of harmful nitrogen dioxide ✅ @Phelimmac@BHGreenCllrs@Misplaced62
