Rejected petition Save Presteigne Secondary School: A Vision for a Stronger, Sustainable Future.
Presteigne’s Secondary School stands at a crossroads — but it can become a beacon of education, opportunity, and community spirit for generations to come.
Our young people deserve the best start in life, and our town needs the vitality only a thriving school can bring. Now is the time to fight for a bold, positive future for Presteigne and Powys.
We call on Powys County Council, Welsh Government, and every supporter to help build a school, a town, a future we can all be proud of.
