Save our nursery

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

Our wonderful nursery attached to our primary school is due to be closed down in July 2016. The nursery is a huge part of our school and has always been an amazing starting point for all children starting school. This simply can not close!
The school is financially struggling to sustain the nursery due to a fall in pupils. The local area is due many new housing developments, so we are hopeful that the intake will increase. The staff have always gone above and beyond to make the children feel safe, secure and most of all happy. Every parent has nothing but praise for this fantastic nursery and we really do not want to lose it!

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. Local nurseries are usually the responsibility of your local council.
