HEADTEACHERS are taking their concerns about their school budgets to their local Labour MP.
The heads of Scarborough's secondary schools are to meet the town's MP, Lawrie Quinn, to voice their concerns over budget shortfalls.
David Pynn, headteacher of Scalby School, said: "We are going to be worse off next year while we are being challenged to raise attainment.
"Government ministers are proclaiming real-term increases in resources for schools but it is not true in North Yorkshire - the county is being penalised at the expense of inner city areas."
Mr Quinn will also be meeting heads Roger Cannon, of St Augustine's, Michael Goode, of Raincliffe school, and Garry Hancock, of Graham school.
