Budget Cuts to North East Fife Schools

Lodged by Willie Rennie LD Lodged 21 Sep 2018 1 supporter

The motion

That the Parliament is concerned about what it considers the huge cuts made to the secondary schools, Waid Academy, Madras College and Bell Baxter High School, in north east Fife; believes that the schools are disproportionately affected by cuts made to education, compared with other Fife secondary schools; understands that 46% of the cuts by Fife Council will affect just 17% of its secondary schools, which are all in north east Fife; wishes that the SNP-Labour council would not target the majority of these cuts at north east Fife schools; understands that £1.28 billion has been cut from schools in Fife, and believes that councils should not have to carry out any further cuts to education.
