What it asks

Petition by Sharon Miller, on behalf of the community of Sorn, consider whether it is satisfied that sufficient recognition is given by local authorities, when considering the closure of a rural school, to the adverse impact the closure would have on rural sustainability and development, where there exists higher than average pupil attainment, attendance and capacity levels and lower than average cost per pupil and to the additional capital and other costs of transferring the pupils to another school and whether the directions and guidance to local authorities fully reflect such circumstances.
