Folowing contact from parents concerned by the reliability, cleanliness and practicality of the school toilets, I wrote directly to the Director of Education,Children and Families urging improvement and requesting that the matter be investigated as soon as possible.
I am pleased to say that, in response, senior education officils will be visiting the school to review the facilities in the coming days.
I will provide further updates on this matter in due course.

local residents have raised concerns regarding the quality of new street lighting installed in The Murrays, including concerns over brightness.
Replaced as part of a city-wide programme to switch to more modern, energy efficient lighting, I can confirm Council Officers will shortly be carrying out a full night time appraisal of the new lights.
I will post a further updates on this matter as I have them.
In response to residents concerns I raised the issue of persistent double parking of vehicles on Drum Street. As a result additional parking enforcement is now taking place in the area.
I am also currently in dialogue with Council Officers regarding istallation of bollards on the dropped kerb areas to help eliminate double parking on these areas.
