Why shut a school delivering excellent education despite huge challenges?
@lambeth_council want to shut us to fill other schools' places - tho we outperform Lambeth's average achievement despite above average % of free school meals & non-English speakers

@lambeth_council, your statement means nothing when the school reduced their PAN to 15. Now the school is full and you still want to close it. You say it isn't about the money when the merger will plug a hole in another school with a deficit. MORE LABOUR LIES.
Schools must undoubtedly shut as birth rates et al fall across London. But closing good schools that run to budget, and serve the communities that require excellent education in the heart of the city does smack of some level of tick-box myopia. @SaveSjtd

@SaveSjtd@lambeth_council@SJTDPrimary@benkind@SJDKennington Brilliant, what a massive response. I hope the message we are sending to Lambeth is clear. This school should not be amalgamated with Christ Church to fill their black hole. This school is the cornerstone of the community and should remain as is.

Please save my son’s brilliant school in 3 clicks - say NO to Lambeth’s devastating plans to close down an excellent school that serves a vulnerable and disadvantaged community. We are utterly heartbroken that Lambeth council are not listening to the parents & local community.

Great to see @FloEshalomi extolling the importance on mental health within communities on @BBCPoliticsLDN Key example of why closure of @SJTDPrimary is so destructive on local communities due to the loss of pastoral care it offers both children and parents. @SaveSjtd
@lambeth_council@SJTDPrimary Meanwhile #Lambeth called off merger of St Saviour's despite their attainment being *below* Lambeth averages despite having 1/2 our school's % of free school meals
@lambeth_council say they have a 'focus on delivering equity for our diverse communities'🙄

Heartbroken @benkind@lambeth_council don’t understand how vital St John the Divine Primary school is to social cohesion & justice. Serving the dangerous Brandon Estate, it’s a lifeline, the bedrock to a safe community & offers an exceptional education. Don’t close our school.
Here pride in 'high standards of education' are highlighted😕
@benkind at public meeting @SJTDPrimary 'quality of education is not the question'
Yet #Lambeth Director of Education said 'quality of education is at centre of this' - so why close our site @lambeth_council
We are so incredibly proud of all our schools in #Lambeth 🥰
Well done @StAndrewsSW16 for your amazing work and the incredibly high standards of education you provide to our children and young people 🥳
