Andrea Leadsom Writes to WNC on Sponne School

Some parents are concerned that pupils from villages surrounding Towcester have not been offered places at Sponne School for the academic year 24/25.

During discussions concerning the expansion of housing in Towcester, residents were assured that Sponne School had the capacity to support the town's growth in addition to the usual local numbers.

I have written to the CEO of WNC, Anna Earnshaw, to ask for an urgent update on how parents’ concerns can be addressed.
