"As an Emmbrook Councillor I am not in favour of the secondary school being moved elsewhere. It is important to me and my fellow councillors in Emmbrook that people are being given an opportunity to comment on the future of the secondary education in Emmbrook and we are in the process of arranging a public meeting. We hope this meeting will take place before the school holidays."

The views of Mr Redwood on this matter

"Dear Mr G.,

I am against both the closure of Emmbrook and the building of a new school in Barkham (wrongly called Finchampstead). I have told Councillors this on many occasions. Unfortunately they have the power of decision, not me. I will continue to oppose this expensive and undesirable scheme.

Yours sincerely

John Redwood."

"I have made public my support for the school and my opposition to its closure. I have attended a Group meeting of Councillors to tell them of my support.

Yours sincerely

John Redwood."

The views of Mr MacKay on this matter

"Thank you for today's email concerning the proposed relocation of the Emmbrook Secondary School the contents of which I read with some sympathy. As you can imagine I am following this consultation very closely not least because part of my constituency includes Finchampstead where parents are concerned about how far their children have to travel to secondary school.

I will naturally also bear your legitimate points in mind.

With best wishes

Andrew MacKay"
