Council is starting procedures to propose the closure of St.Teresa's School in Southport.
In line with a request from the school’s Governing Body, Sefton Council is starting procedures to propose the closure of St.Teresa's Catholic Infant and Nursery School in Southport.
After being advised by the Governing Body that they have exhausted all options available to increase pupil numbers, the Local Authority has agreed to consider instigating the procedure for closing the school.
To avoid any speculation or rumour, the school’s headteacher has written to all pupils’ families and has held a meeting with all staff. An announcement will also be made to parishioners at St Teresa's R C Church on Sunday.
The letter tells parents that Sefton Council will progress the matter at the next Cabinet meeting, which will be held on Thursday 4th November.
