Local schools deserve a fair deal

Local Liberal Democrats have been continuing their campaign for a 'Fair Deal' for Cheadle's children. Recent figures show that pupils at Kingsway School receive around £1,000 less per pupil each year from government than children at Parrs Wood School just over a mile away in neighbouring Manchester City.

This inequality is due to the way central government divides up education cash. This unfairness has been repeated across Cheadle under both Conservative and Labour governments.

Local Lib Dems have been lobbying governments for years to change the way they fund local schools to give Cheadle children a fair deal.

Mark Hunter said, "Our schools achieve excellent results but they could do even better if they received a fair deal from government."

    If you are a resident of the Cheadle constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.

    • If you agree, Mark Hunter MP, the Liberal Democrats, and their elected representatives may use the information you provide to contact you about issues you may find of interest. Some of the contacts may be automated. You can opt out of these contacts at any time by contacting us.
