Meeting at the Malcolm X Centre - Tuesday 13th May

Malcolm X Centre, Ashley Road, St Pauls
Tuesday May 13th
7-9pm.

A group of local parents are beginning to look into the feasibility of creating an urban village school within Ashley Ward for 11 to 18 year olds based on the Human Scale Education model www.hse.org.uk currently being advocated by James Wetz, the former head of Cotham School.

Channel 4 featured James on its Dispatches programme on 11th February examining alternative models of schooling in the UK and the USA.

If you have an interest in secondary school provision in this area then come along to the meeting. We have invited James Wetz to speak about education on a human scale and be available for questions.
