Glasgow mum's concern over lack of school spaces after daughter refused place.
Concerns over the lack of space in Robroyston schools have been raised by a mum whose daughter won’t be able to attend class with her friends when term restarts.
Despite Smithycroft being the catchment school for Wallacewell, Ms Kane is worried about her daughter having to rely on a public bus service which she claims only operates once an hour and is unreliable. Lynsey also applied for a place at Turnbull High School but was advised Lilly would be put on a waiting list as they could not accommodate her.
“She has a younger brother who is at Wallacewell Primary and I know I am going to have the same fight on my hands in a few years’ time when he goes to secondary school. The situation is only going to get worse.” “All that it has achieved is in creating a level of anxiety no one, especially a young girl about to start high school, should have to endure. A people-centred approach must be adopted and this process rewritten.
