Save Wroxall School. It is a joyful school, that is well attended staffed by a dedicated and caring team. A very recent and massive investment in Wroxall school will be squandered if this school closes when other schools need investment. Ventnor Pupils travel past St Francis to attend this happy school. Parents know that it is worth the extra journey to have happy kids that love their school.Joyce Milford (Ventnor, 2024-09-08)

because my brother attends this school (he is 8 years old with severe autism) this school is all he’s ever known in an education sense it would be so difficult from him to readjust in a new school, plus he loves his wroxall family!Isabelle Smith (shanklin, 2024-09-09)

I am signing because this school has been the only stability for my non verbal autistic nephew. This school closing would lose all the development he has gained during the last 3 years.Neil Thomas (Nordelph, 2024-09-09)

Wroxall Primart is a much loved and needed community school. These small schools serve the community in such a positive way and the young people that go there will be terribly effected by it's closure.Karen Stritton (Ventnor, 2024-09-09)

My 8 year old Autistic Son has been attending the school /Nursery since he was 3 years old. He's had a 1 to 1 with him all that time and he has built a great relationship with this person. He will lose that if the school closed and he would struggle with the changes that the closer would bring. SEN children need stabilityPete Still (Shanklin, 2024-09-11)

My children and grandchildren attended this school. How can a decision be made to move children from a successful school to a failing school, with limited accommodation. The money spent on Wroxall primary refurbishments was to future proof the school, nearly £2 million pounds. Our village has lost so much over the years, our church is in danger of closing, the school is such an important part of the village and it would be a diabolical decision if the school was selected for closure.Sue Coombe (WROXALL, 2024-09-11)

The nurturing of children should not be sacrificed for budget purposes. As someone who works in mental health I know too well how our formative lives affect us in later life. Please give our children the chance to thrive as they deserve.Janet Coe (Sandown, 2024-09-11)

I have a nursery that my daughter loves and she can't wait to start school next September 2025. She also loves walking to school and l brakes my heart that she is so happy there and that she won't be able to go there in SeptemberVicky Lover (Wroxall, 2024-09-11)

I grew up in the village and that school is the heart is the community, and the logistics getting the kids to other schools would be a nightmare that the parents don't need!!! The kids needs and education should be put above everything!Michael Turner (Shanklin, 2024-09-11)

I am completely baffled by this. It's just another reason to dump the entire IWC. I think they forget who they work for and who put them there. Where else could you get away with spending huge amounts of public money on something and then pull the plug. We've seen it over and over again. I am sick of these people making crap decisions on our behalf. Surely we need more schools here, not less.Unless,of course they want to turn IW into a giant retirement home. What's next, Oh I know go against The entire population and allow an American energy company to plough a massive wound straight through the Island to pump Co2 into the Channel

So more and more affordable houses are being built to accommodate first time younger buyers, so children will be born.. and surprise surprise, there will not be enough schools to accommodate them.Tiffany Wheeler (Isle of wight, 2024-09-11)

I consider wroxall primary school to be an important part of the community and the children will have to travel away from wroxall to attend classSTEPHEN NUTTALL (Wroxall, 2024-09-12)

Please save our school. Our children’s education was massively interrupted during the COVID-19 pandemic. 2 years worth of education lost that cannot be replenished. Some children then forced into home education afterwards due to difficulties at school. And now once finding their feet (Year 5 children especially) they are being threatened with further disruption should our school (and others) be shut down. At the very least allow Godshill to relocate to Wroxall so that there will room for developments and improvements for all children and all staff. Bigger support and children are still with their friends from both schools. And parents haven’t got to go on ridiculous and expensive school commutes 4 times a day. Wroxall is the larger building and has had so much money spent in refurbishments.So put it to good use and stop messing with our children’s mental health and future wellbeing.

Closing the school is a shortsighted decision. With the planned increase in housing on the island following the change in government, we could find the places to be in demand. Also the building has had major refurbishment so what a financial waste!Karen Salter (Wroxall, 2024-09-13)

The School is a vital part of the community and is doing well, my daughter is settled there. The car park is far better equipped than other schools. The School does not operate at a loss and is well positioned sustainability wise for public and private transport.Hayden Marsh (Ventnor, 2024-10-15)
