Why is the council targeting Aith, Baltasound, Skerries, Whalsay schools etc. All in outlying areas furthest from the centre of the mainland? Why is Mossbank, Cunningsburgh and Tingwall not on the list. Shorter commuter distances with no ferry journey? I am bemused at the councils approach to saving money by simply shutting things. Start from the top and start cutting staff. Budge is costing the council £100,000 a year to come up with these hairbrained ideas. We must all fight for the rural schools and ask questions why we are being targeted so heavily with cuts.
