A SECONDARY SCHOOL FOR COBURG
Local parents are looking for a secondary education facility beginning at Year 7.
Christine Campbell MP, Member for Pascoe Vale has received a report by a Parliamentary Intern on local secondary education access. The report: “An investigation into the need for a 7-12 secondary school in Coburg” presents a comprehensive investigation based on demographics and parental intentions.
The report contends that there is such a need based on three main grounds; social, environmental and educational.
Ms Campbell said, “I have written to the Minister for Education asking that in the Expenditure Review Committee discussions, beginning in September and culminating with the May, 2010 budget, there be provision for a Year 7 intake in January 2011 at the current Coburg Senior High School site.”
