| Stephen Metcalfe and Cllr Hillier with pupils from the school |
Stephen Metcalfe, MP for South Basildon and East Thurrock, and
Sandra Hillier local County Councillor for Langdon Hills, paid a visit to St
Margaret’s C of E Primary School last week to show their support for the school
under the new headship of Emma Wigmore.
Mr Metcalfe and Cllr Hillier were given a tour of the school and
made the most of the opportunity to meet and talk with students from a wide
range of year groups. They also met with the Chair of Governors, Helen Chapman,
and were introduced to the new Headteacher who outlined her vision for the
future of the school.
Mr Metcalfe commented: “It was great to visit St Margaret’s. It
was a pleasure to meet some of the pupils and to touch base with Emma Wigmore
and Helen Chapman. We cannot hide from the fact that the school has faced some
challenges recently, but I have every confidence that things can, and will
change under this new leadership.”
“I hope that this will be the first of many visits and I look
forward to seeing the school moving forward and flourishing. I will of course
be supporting this process in any way that I can.”
