Friends of Bow Primary, the group lobbying to get a new primary school opened in the old Bow Boys secondary school grounds in Paton Close, needs your help.

If you are free on Tuesday, 7 February at 5.30pm they need supporters willing to attend the Tower Hamlets Council cabinet meeting.

At the meeting FOBP are hoping to get an answer about whether the school will open as originally promised in 2018 or if we will have to wait much longer. As you can imagine, for people with pre-schoolers, this means a lot of uncertainty about their future in the area.

If you can attend, let FOB know via the post on their website and they will arrange to meet beforehand.

The meeting is at Town Hall, Mulberry Place, London E14 2BG, which is a very short walk from East India DLR, or 108 bus to Lewisham (Blackwall Tunnel/East India Dock Road stop)

If the group don’t get a clear response from the council they plan to ramp up their campaign: if you can help, get in touch through their website.
