Middle School Costs Spiral Out of Control

As I forecast the full schools cost is slowly becoming apparent.

The whole process was claimed as going to cost £70 million.

With the Haverhill and Lowestoft plans now likely to cost £73 million own their own what is now the anticipated costs of this proposal?

Where County Councillors misled when the figures were first proposed?

Since the 'review' is supposed to be 'ongoing', is it time to respond to actual costs by knocking it in the head?

Or is it not an ongoing review at all?

How much will be left in the budget when it comes to re-organising the schools in Bury St Edmunds?

The public deserve to know the answers to these questions. They are paying for it all after all!
