    Weird, schools are closing due to falling class sizes round here.

      Start another series of Britain's Got Talent to distract the masses from the inevitability of economic ruin and the coming Zombie Apocalypse?

        Shirley this is down to the influx of eastern Europeans, of course the romanians won't send theirs to school cos they will be to busy twocking cars and muggin old ladies

          Privatisation of the education system is the only way forward, surely?

            Not everywhere. We don't have enough school spaces to fill the gap. Some people moving into newer estates are going to be in for one hell of a surprise when they see the schools that have spaces.

              A few years back, we struggled to get 24 into our reception class - now it's 60 every year.

              School was built to take 420, opened taking 300 and this year we've passed 400. This past couple of years has been a "bulge" year in terms in intake throughout the area.

                Keep the kids at home and anaesthetise them with ciggies and cider and Sky Sports, same as their parents. Most of 'em will never get jobs ever anyway, and will just be dole scroungers, so why bother educating them?

                EDIT: the chavvy ones anyway. Nice middle class kids whose parents are seeing house price increases should obviously be educated

                  I think this problem needs a solution. Something Final perhaps.....
