Another public meeting's being held this evening about controversial plans to make two Portishead schools all-through primaries.

North Somerset Council's extended its consulation on the proposals for High Down Infants and Junior schools, and added tonight's opportunity for people to have their say at Somerset Hall in the town from 6-30.

Campaigners from The High Down Action Group say the plans should be scrapped as hundreds of residents have signed an online petition objecting to them - while another parents group claims the funds would be better used on providing school places in and around the Village Quarter instead.
