Opposition councillors at Oldham MBC have criticised the ruling Labour group after it was announced a new £33m school would not open as planned this week.
‘This will affect parents and carers who will have to look at changing their working patterns or childcare arrangements, because the young people will be off school for a further week,' said Liberal Democrat group leader, Cllr Howard Sykes. ‘I shall be seeking assurances that all the other schools which are part of the Building Schools for the Future and Academy project open on time.'
