Near accurate pupil numbers for Dargavel and Park Mains schools have been sitting in a Renfrewshire Council document for the past five years, it has been revealed.The 2017 report – identified by parents of children attending Dargavel Primary School last month – states that Dargavel Village would create 854 additional primary school-aged pupils once completed.While the report referenced a new school with a capacity for 440 children, it states the education department believed the remaining 414 children could be accommodated within existing schools nearby.It means that Renfrewshire Council had itself known six years ago that a minimum of 856 children would need a primary school place.
The local authority has refused to comment on the revelation.Education bosses had revealed in October last year how they made a catastrophic error with pupil estimates which ultimately saw Dargavel Primary opened with a maximum capacity of 548.Renfrewshire Council believed the school roll would be 430.
It is projected to reach 1,100 in the coming years.Renfrewshire Live, the new free app dedicated to bringing you around the clock breaking news, is now available to download.Powered by the Paisley Daily Express, Renfrewshire Live is your go-to source for news, features and sport with live coverage provided direct to the app, seven days a week.The dedicated team of experienced journalists, responsible for the publication of the award-winning Express, will focus on breaking news, day and night, across Renfrewshire’s towns and villages.There is also a dedicated St Mirren section that will follow every kick of the ball with the Buddies.Available on both Android and Apple.
