We are in need of more amenities not the closure of one! We contribute a lot of money via community tax and get little in return. Please reconsider.

Not more 'exclusive 2 and 3 bedroom apartments' please!!

In my view Burley Grange is the focal point of the village and serves its pivotal role of educating young and retired residents of this village. Please keep it going.

My family have used this facility for many years, I feel that this is just another example of penalising the over 25's. Surely there are other ways of saving money.

Government of the people. for the people, by the people is of the essence of the democratic world which education seeks to foster - remove the fostering agents and the democratic world will cease to be and become one huge beaurocratic mess.

If thse Buildings are demolished or converted to provide housing, will the Park also be lost & the Cenotaph moved to a different location.

I have used adult education many times and I know once it goes it would take much more effort to bring it back.
" -James Brown |

The college is ideally situated for those citizens who wish to use its facilities for this location. In actual fact I feel it should be free at source as we pay enough in Council Taxes.

The concentration of the government on vocational skills for the young singularly ignores the considerable contribution that non-vocational education makes to communities, both in terms of life-quality and community spirit.

This is valuble local resource. I have taken classes there in the past & would hope to again in the future. Please don't close it.

I gained my GCSE in Maths at Burley Grange. It helped me get back to work. Less local adult education means more traffic as we all choose to get in our cars to travel.This is not an option for many.

This would be of a great loss to the community if closed
" -Jacqueline Barrett |

Please keep Burley Grange open. It is a resource for the community and has been accessed by our family.

Burley Grange is a feeder to FE courses and closure would not only reduce the uptake of adult education locally but would inhibit the transfer of learners onto other courses. it would be as bad a long-term decision as Beeching's closure of railways.
" -Alan Elsegood |

This is a vital component of our village community and of Wharfedale in general. The community was not fully consulted until the 11th hour and to close the college would be in breach of College and Council best practice proceedures.

I am registering my protest at the closure because education is most important to all age groups, even the elderley, and too many courses are being discarded because of the excuse of lack of funding.

I have used Burley Grange for classes and would not be able to go elsewhere.
" -Roy Perry |

It is a valuable resource well used by all in the valley. It's position saves a great deal of travelling, resultant polution, time lost etc by giving ease of access not everything can be centralised People won't be able to attend elsewhere.

I have attended several courses at Burley Grange, and consider its provision of Adult Education a vital part of the life of this village.

Do not close Burley Grange, it is a useful further education establishment for the local community.
My in-laws and friends attend classes on this site.

A building which provides an important venue for many people in the area should not be lost in order to make a quick buck. Again and again we see BMC selling off its assets for a short term gain. Burley Grange is one such building.

I have had Adult French lessons at the grange, this is a valuable asset to our villiage and community spirit. My daughter-in-law also uses this facility, including the creche, which is excellent. Say No to Closure

Why close a good community Education facility.
These classes are used by many people, young and old alike in Burley. The Grange is a good social
facility for the villiage. (Both my parents, and several friends use this facility)

Its appalling, it is very well used.
