Visiting Cobham Free School

Today, I visited Cobham Free School headteacher Michaela Khatib and Chair of Governors, Howard Morris at their new site in Cobham. They talked me through their plans to introduce the Sixth Form to the site this September, and gave me a tour.

I share their frustration at the length of time it is taking to move the rest of the school in from their temporary site. I have raised the issue with Ministers, and will now take it up with Education Secretary Damian Hinds. Once completed, the new site will be home to a great school serving Cobham families, and it is part of my wider drive to make sure we provide enough top quality school places right across Elmbridge.
