A TEENAGER with behavioural problems has lost out on three years of school because education bosses have been unable to find him a suitable place at a special school.
His distraught mum Wendy Peel said if she’d kept her son Marshall Newlove off school herself she’d be ‘in prison’ but nobody seems to be doing anything about the fact that he has no school to go to.
She says she is ‘terrified’ that Marshall - who should be taking his GCSEs next summer - will leave school with nothing to show for it at all.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
