As a standing Independent candidate, I call for a Judicial Review over the IEB's decision to hand Copland to Ark Academy.

The Voting Public are not aware that Brent Council have just approved the building of Tower Blocks on the Copland site and moving Copland school to the rear as per 22 April 2014.

Brent Executive Report dated 22 April 2014 point 1.5 States

"1.5. Additionally the proposals seek to facilitate the delivery of new homes including affordable homes, commercial and community space at the frontage of the existing CCS in line with the aspirations set out in the Wembley Area Action Plan."

"TOWER BLOCKS" are going up on front of Copland site, just agreed by Brent Council.

The only way to stop this now is a Judicial Review.
