Another Tory manifesto commitment - to SET UP an Exclusion Centre for unruly school students - has bitten the dust. However, I have to say I am delighted. Such centres will never solve behaviour problems; only proper support from County Hall, parents, staff and governors will. An example of populist promises not being based on realities.
Apart from that I have spent much of the week so far getting the Scrutiny enquiry into the Wightcare privatisation moving, and dealing with irate residents of Furrlongs about the buses through Pan estate. I have decided to go ahead with a public meeting about the latter on 3rd May at Downside Middle School (7pm) at which there will be representatives of Southern Vectis and Highways to answer questions and respond to mounting concerns.
