Why this scaremongering over site for new school?
• YOUR report (Paedophile fears over school at ‘isolated’ site, October 2) was irresponsible, ill-informed and one-sided. It quoted from a police document which did raise some concerns about the Crouch Hill site proposal but also made a number of recommendations on addressing those concerns. You failed to mention these, or get any response from Ashmount School’s head, its governors or the architects behind the scheme for any sense of balance. Neither does the police report use the language taken by your headline. You have a responsibility to avoid scaremongering on such sensitive subjects. > more |
