As far as Cuckfield Rural Parish Council is concerned, the lack of sixth form facilities in Burgess Hill is a separate issue to the one of a change of site for St. Paul's School.

Perhaps Burgess Hill town councillors should take this issue up independently with the county education department, possibly in relation to an extension of the facilities at Oakmeeds Community School.

The management of St. Paul's School and Burgess Hill town councillors should be aware the proposed new site for St. Paul's School lies within Cuckfield Rural Parish, not Burgess Hill town. Any planning applications for a school will be discussed by this parish council and ultimately determined by Mid Sussex District Council.
