A group of students from the University of Huddersfield have produced a documentary about the potential move of the Saddleworth School.
The 20 minute video above, was presented by Gregory Deane and produced by Danielle Bradshaw and Matthew Jaggar, who have all been on placement at Saddleworth News for the last six months.
It is the culmination of months of work from the group who interviewed Matthew Milburn, Mike Buckley and Ian Scotney as well as others about the issue.
The documentary is exclusive to Saddleworth News and will be the foundation of the groups degree assessment.
Students - well done on your efforts. Mr Milburn - hub for the community pfft leave Diggle alone. If I wanted to live near a hub I would have moved to a place with one. All it says to me is destroying green belt, more traffic for visitors to the hub and more dangers for my child. Sincerely Nimby No2 and proud.
those last few words say it all. I for one will welcome a new school in Diggle, does Mr Buckley have school age children? if so I wonder if he would feel any different??
I have 3 school age children. The current site is the driest and safest. And yes it can be built there, see North Chadderton for a local example.
