Save Carterhatch Children Centres

The local area need nursery to support working parents and lone working parents

I want this centre to stay open my gran nieces and gran nephew are very settled there

I will get all my parent associates to sign as I am deeply upset with what the nursery are doing here. They cant get away with it!

How can they justify this?

My daughter started at this Centre as a baby and has now moved up to 3-5s to complete what was supposed to be her final years before going into reception class at School. If this centre is allowed to make these changes it will be extremely unsettling for her. I have done all that I can to give her the stability that every child deserves. I find it extremely unfair that after just a few months of being in 3-5 room and making new friends, she will then be kicked out of the nursery completely and made to attend another nursery (to make new friends and build new relationships) to then be unsettled again to move to primary school just a year later. It makes no sense to distress the children or us parents like this. Also why does whoever has made this decision feel that children of working and non-working parents need to be segregated???

Very silly to close as parents pay so they can go to work and earn a living. Closing this says a lot about society

Please save our nursery my baby boy loves it there don't want him to leave please all sign xxx

i think its totally wrong and unfair, and is not treating all children equal or fairly.

Why should parents who work have to pay for others that can't be bothered to get off there arses and work. Its alwasy the good citizens of this country who suffer. The government have a lot to answer for! Why do parents that stay at home need free childcare? What are working parents meant to do? Go and look for more expensive childcare in the area or stop working, stay at home and get a funded places for our kids!

This school needs to stay open for working mums .

I thought the government was supposed to be helping working parents with childcare not making it harder for them.

This is a totally unfair exercise at the end of the day parents and grandparents have contributed ie paied taxes national insurance all their lives why penalize a child's education because of monetary issues which is not the childs fault.

Simple either have children and claim benefits or stay in a job and don't have children.
Why do we keep getting penalised for having a job, children and paying our taxes??

It is utterly wrong to discriminate against working parents who are trying to be independent. It is wrong also to uproot children who have already settled into an environment. In other words you are telling working parents to stop working and live on the government. How will the country show any progress and where will the money come from if no one is paying taxes. This centre must not disturb the routine of these children and their families. Hope you are listening.....

This is not fair for working arents and thier children.

This is unfair for working parents and thier children

As a school governor I feel this new approach is quite absurd! All children should be entitled to free care/education no matter what there parents financial situation is. Places like carterhatch are for the help of the whole community and as my school motto goes " no child left behind". Shame it cants be followed here!

I believe this decision is unreasonable, discriminatory and ought be reconsidered. The best interests of the child are not served by this decision.

I think that all mums single our otherwise should sign this

Disgraceful decision made here. To leave these paying parents scrambling around trying to find full time places for their children in new schools/nurseries, which are like gold dust, at ridiculously short notice is just abysmal and incredibly unfair, not to mention the detrimental effect this will have on those unfortunate little children who have been pushed out.

This needs rectifying quickly.
