The future of another rural primary school is dangling by a thread after a consultation was launched to close it - because it has no pupils left.
Despite having an OFSTED rating of good, Fountains Earth Lofthouse CE Primary School, in Lofthouse, North Yorkshire, looks set to join a raft of other rural primaries which have closed their doors in recent years. A year ago, the school had 15 pupils on roll, and five years ago there were around 30. An email sent by the foundation, and seen by the Yorkshire Post, states: “The term has started at Fountains Earth Lofthouse CE Primary School with no pupils on roll.
“The Upper Nidderdale Parish Council and the community are totally against this closure, and wish to see a change of management at the federation. We wish to see the school remain open under new management. We have no confidence in the governing of this federation.
