MONEY could be released sooner than expected to pay for a replacement Todmorden High school, said Calder Valley MP Chris McCafferty.

She said the latest Gover-nment announcement gave hope money would be made available, if Calderdale could provide plans for a rebuilding project, showing they could meet the capital project successfully.

Under the new legislation, money would be released by the Government to help local authorities pay for the necessary refurbishment work being carried out. Mrs McCafferty said: "Under the new proposal, between August and October, Calderdale Council will be asked to put forward plans for the highest priorities, and I am certain that Todmorden High is one of these."

Actually, it's better spelling and punctuation.
When i was at school they still had chalk and slate,unfortunately education has got worse not better.
If this is the case, why can you not use the full-stop or capital letters correctly? You need a full-stop after 'slate', not a comma, and a capital letter for the pronoun 'I'. I should point out that I am certainly not from the 'chalk and slate' era that you claim to be, and yet I appear rather better able to use the basics of English. Education getting worse? Go figure.

Not much wrong with the teachers its the powers above that restrict dicipline procedures, you could add parents to that list as well!
