Flawed and rushed consultation on school boundaries for Brighton and Hove.
On Wednesday the 9th of October the council met and discussed
(as an addendum) a proposal for changing school boundaries. An
poorly publicised, rushed and flawed consultation has already seen
many questions raised about the process including (but not limited
to):
- limited data available on the proposed schemes impacts. That
which is available not presented in an accessible way
- limited time and opportunity for feedback from the key community
the council should be seeking feedback from (parents) with meetings
at times when parents are putting kids to bed etc) and with limited
warning to plan for this.
- a leading and flawed questionnaire that forces people to answer
yes or no to complex questions
The proposals have far reaching implications and although the objectives of reducing inequality are welcomed, the process by which this has been managed so far is not adequate for a meaningful consultation.
