Cross sample letter to schools & arts organisations
Birmingham City Council plans to cut central education services and outsource them as private cooperative/trust organizations. This would affect services that support music, outdoor learning, special education needs, early years teaching, behavior support, school advising and improvement, health education, family learning, school catering and cleaning, and international student exchange. The letter writer is concerned that once outsourced, these services will either close or only be available to schools and families that can afford to pay for them. They ask the recipient to sign an enclosed petition challenging the proposed cuts to these important education support services.

The petition urges the council to oppose these cuts and demand more funding from the government to maintain public services for children.

- 1. Sample letter to MPs Dear I write to express my deep concern about the proposed cuts to public services in Birmingham and around the country. I have just learnt that Birmingham City Council is proposing to cut all its central Education Services which includes: The Music Service Arts Education Advisory Support to Schools Health Education Governors and School Support Outdoor Education Schools Catering and Cleaning Services Early Years Teacher Support Services for Special Needs Children Behaviour Support Services These services are currently available to all Birmingham schools and centres, they make a real difference to children and young people’s lives and contribute significantly to school improvement. Birmingham has been acknowledged nationally as the highest achieving metropolitan local authority for education with strong and valued partnerships between schools and the local authority. For the first time in my life I feel so concerned that I have joined the campaign, CROSS, Campaign to Retain our School Services. I have never written to an MP before or been on a protest march, but I do feel so “cross” that I have decided that I must do something to protest against these cuts. I implore you to listen to all the voices raised against these planned cuts; there is still time to make sure that these services are not lost or privatised and other ways of solving the financial difficulties.
