Last Christmas for Dunningford

Parents from one of Havering's best primary schools have watched their children performing their last Christmas concert before the school is closed down.

Despite having good Ofsted results Dunningford primary in Elm park is being closed, and it's pupils will be moved to another site.

The school had been meant to merge with nearby Ayloff school next year, which would have meant some teachers could have been kept on.

But recent changes to legislation mean the school now has to be closed altogether.

It means staff could face redundancy, and parents are worried about how their children will adjust to the upheaval.

"It鈥檚 heartbreaking鈥e鈥檙e all going home knowing鈥here鈥檒l be no school in times to come鈥."

Linda Butler

There were emotional scenes as mums and dads watched their children singing carols and playing in the school鈥檚 orchestra.

Mum Linda Butler told me that 鈥淚t鈥檚 heartbreaking鈥

This school鈥檚 been a huge part of my family for four years- I have two children here鈥

For a small school they make a huge effort with the kids鈥

We're all going home knowing 鈥 there'll be no school in times to come鈥.
