A precedent has been set by a forward-thinking group of schools
in the Bolton and Horwich areas of Lancashire, inspired in
particular by Andrew Hurst, Head of Chorley
New Road Primary School and fully supported by the Cluster
Head James Royale of Blackrod Church Primary
School.
Using cluster funding made
available for problem solving developmental work
in Primary schools, Minibridge was introduced in January and
February of 2006 to the following
schools:
Chorley New Road Primary
Blackrod Church Primary
St Catherine's Primary
Lord Street Primary
St Mary's Primary
Claypool Primary
Horwich Parish Primary
Blackrod County Primary
