Mother alarmed at loss of school programmes

I FIND myself being increasingly alarmed at the correspondence coming home from my children’s schools.

The primary school may have to cut back on special needs assistants and may not be able to offer the excursions and cultural experiences that were regular until now.

I feel we don’t know the extent of the cutbacks. Families will also have to contribute more at a time when we are earning less because of the 1% Government levy.
