Home: Community full menu: Education and Learning full menu: Building schools for the future
Excellent Local schoolsJo Hunter - September 2008school.organisation@kirklees.gov.uk We want to make every local school an excellent school Building Schools for the Future ’ is the biggest ever investment in education in Kirklees. Over £500 million will be invested in the whole of Kirklees to radically improve opportunities for today’s children and young people and generations to come. We want to start in North Kirklees and have looked at the area as a whole, not just individual schools, to begin building work in 2011 to change local education for the better. We want to change not only the buildings but also the way schools operate through strong leadership and working in partnership. Schools need to be centres for learning for everyone, at the heart of their community, stimulating knowledge and creativity, helping to drive local regeneration. We want a broader and richer range of subjects and courses on offer, in better facilities and shared by local communities. Through consultation and feedback we have already been listening to what children, young people, parents, carers, teachers, school staff, community leaders and many others want from their local schools. This has helped shape the proposals. We believe they are the best way to improve our communities and provide our children and young people with better lifetime chances.
