  L
                        As many of you may know, this group has formed in response to the
                  problems we see arising from children being bussed to schools on the
                  other side of Swindon. As far as we can find out,  there are no plans
                  for junior school provision in Toothill. This means we may have to
                  wait for anything from 3 years upwards - no dates are set.

                        A letter has been sent to the County Council to ask what  will be
                  the admissions policy for the Church Aided School when it is complete,
                  but we are fairly sure it won't include juniors!

                        If you are worried about this situation, contact any of the names
                  below, and they will tell you how you can help. The County Education
