Plans to expand Maple Infants’ and St Andrew’s and St Mark’s Junior schools in Surbiton have been scrapped after Kingston Council bowed to pressure from campaigners.
Parents learned today that a new two-storey classroom block will not be built and the schools’ intake will not be expanded in September. The move could affect dozens of Year 2 children at Maple Infants’, who now may not gain places at the next-door junior school.
A ‘bulge’ class of 30 pupils will enter Maple Infants’ in September, but the Comet understands there are no plans for similar arrangements at St Andrew’s and St Mark’s.
