Hi,
Please read below letter from Mrs. Image (my letter to her is in the attachment). Mrs. Image didn’t respond to all my questions – I was probably expecting too much. However, she confirms there is no funding available and also that the diocese is determined to continue to pursue the catholic college project when the funding becomes available.
This means our fight is not over yet and at the same time we are facing a long period of uncertainty with all the negative consequences for the quality of education at Bernard’s!
Warm regards
Luisa

Dear Mrs Sykes
Thank you for your letter. As you know, the Catholic College is without funding. Decisions regarding secondary education nationally will be contained in the Comprehensive Spending Review in October 2010. The sponsors still will to pursue the vision of a Catholic College should funding become available.
I look forward to hearing your views should the project progress to consultation stage.
Yours sincerely
