More/.. The area proposed in their planning application is totally unacceptable. What parent in their right mind would want their child educated in temporary portacabin units in the middle of building and demolition site for 15 years, next to a road that the construction traffic for the development will use? Our children deserve better than this and we intend to get it for them. Ms Purchase adds. We want to create an exceptional school that meets local needs, as well as increasing parental choice of secondary schools for people living in Wokingham. The school we establish will be at the heart of the community it serves. Richard Peat, also a co-founder of the Group, describes the vision for the new school. It will be a forward thinking school that focuses on getting the best out of each child, whether they are academically, creatively or vocationally orientated. We believe that developing social and communication skills of children are as important as getting them the good GCSE grades needed to follow further education or apprenticeship opportunities. We want every child who leaves our school to be confident, motivated and happy individuals who can make the most of whatever life has to offer them. The Group are hoping other parents will join them in getting the new SOW school up and running, by offering the skills and expertise needed to get the formal bid together for September 2014. A web-site is being developed and the South of Wokingham Free School Group can be found on Facebook.
