I have 2 daughters that go to Lydd Primary and they have been aware, along with all the other children, that they would raise the lamb and then send it to market / slaughter in September. The decision for this was made in June. It is only a small minority of the parents and children at the school that oppose.

But everyone didn't vote, did they? Only fourteen children were given the opportunity to vote. And two comments from two hundred and thirty odd, does not make a majority. If the school were that certain of the student body's opinion, why didn't they ask them all, or are saying that referenda don't mean anything?

The Ofsted report disagrees with your viewpoint - page 3 14 out of 235 pupils sounds like a good representation.

It also states which is when Andrea Charman was appointed.

Also, can you confirm how you know that any of the school council members are seven, or was that just a made-up emotive argument?

Would you be vegetarian, perchance?

It might help to read the article referred to earlier in the thread.
