You report (Argus, February 12) that wrong calculations have resulted in too few places at the new Peacehaven Community School.
The truth is that East Sussex County Council was only allocated resources for a 150-place school.
The council gave strong arguments to the Government about the community need for a school in Peacehaven, even though there were sufficient places at Tideway.
Against all the usual "rules", the Government was persuaded by those arguments.
We should celebrate that success, which was against the odds, and now move on to making the case again for further resources for Peacehaven.
-Denise Stokoe, Director of Education, East Sussex County Council
