Praise God! Our School plan has been approved!

Today Michael Gove, Secretary of State for Education, has announced that he is putting St Michael's School in Truro  forward to the next stage for conversion into one of the nation's first 79 Free Schools. It will be the first Catholic Free School.
So many of you have been praying for this over the past 8 weeks. Your generous prayers have been answered. Cornwall will now, please God, have its very own Catholic State Secondary school.
Especial praise must go to the steering committee who have worked with ferocious and unstinting enthusiasm to put all the paperwork together.
Now the hard work will begin in a new way....
Here is the building in Camborne where we hope to take up residence. It was once the Girls' Grammar school.
