REPORT CLAIMS

5 July 2005

Key claims in the Dylan Thomas governors' report:

The planned closure would do nothing to address the problem of surplus places in city schools;

The council forecast for the number of children going to the school is incorrect;

The valuation put on the land is a speculative figure;

The issue of school transport has not been properly addressed;

Dylan Thomas's buildings already comply with the Disability Discrimination Act. Bishop Gore's do not; and,

The process which resulted in Dylan Thomas being named as a school considered for closure was flawed.
