Statement issued on new £22m school where teachers face redundancy and state of the art facilities may never be used

A new £22m school facing redundancies and cuts just months after opening has been told to “manage” its finances amid fears that pupils won’t be safe. Powys Council has put out a statement insisting that “a safe learning environment will always be maintained” at Ysgol Robert Owen as it warned other schools in the county are also making cuts.
