Free school campaigners 'planning all-through school in Dorset'

Free school campaigners in Dorset are proposing to open a new all-through school.

According to the BBC, Parkfield New School would be based in Bournemouth or Poole and could accommodate up to 390 pupils.

A public consultation is currently taking place and campaigners say they have already received more than 200 registrations of interest.

The school would cater for pupils from primary level right through to sixth form.

Sarah Fryer, a spokeswoman for the Parkfield New School Group, told the news provider: "We want the school to be in the best location to serve the largest amount of people in the Bournemouth and Poole area, so we are asking the public where they would like it to be."

Speaking recently to the BBC, Manchester headteacher Ian Fenn expressed his concern over free schools.

He argued that they are "divisive" and will be a "blot on the landscape".
