Did anyone see the piece on Campbell Live last night about the school that applied for voluntary closure last year, but were told that there was a process that needed to be followed (which I'm sure there is, and presumably for good reason) and that the earliest it can close is in July this year?

In the meantime, the Ministry of Education is paying one principal, a .3 teacher, a caretaker and a school secretary to look after a school with no pupils.

Seems like that money could be used much better elsewhere.
