Who's paying for it?

Hull needs all of the leg ups it can get, especially in education

Definitely. Not sure this is the way to go though.

a new school defenatly not needed imo maybe it provides work but surely its £9.5m into a black whole because a school does not make money!!!!!

He's doing ok, just set up a new business.......

What about the money saved on Healthcare, Benefits and Policing that can be expected from a more educated society?



Education needs to be looked at as a long term investment, and Education is currently one of Hull's biggest issues.



to simplify this further, smaller classrooms are correlated with better grades - so it adding a new school that bad?

Should build a prison there instead, it will be more useful.

HMP Hull is perfectly adequate...

To be honest i don't really mind what they turn it into as long as they have a lasting tribute to what was a great historical ground. A permanent mural built into a wall would be nice with maybe a roll of honour underneath?

You really think the money will go into the local economy?

Of course it will, just like the £100's of millions which have already been spent on schools in Hull

i have to agree with your sentiment , you can see a large west yorkshire company winning the tender process and the needy tradesmen of Hull getting nowt!!!



How about calling it the J Harrison VC school ??

couldnt get more apt if it is to be a lasting tribute but more likely to be named after some dodgy labour councillor
