LIBERAL Democrats at their recent Spring Conference backed plans to improve schools. The plans include cutting infant class sizes to 15 and spending £2.5bn of additional funding to close the gap between children from rich and poor families.

"Schools and children in Nottinghamshire will benefit from these plans," said local Councillor Jason Zadrozny. "They will ensure that all young people have a good start in life."

"I am especially pleased that these plans have been have been backed nationally, as locally the Lib Dems 10-point plan to fix Nottinghamshire County after 28 years of Labour neglect, sees cutting local class sizes as a priority too.".

"It is now clear that on June 4th Nottinghamshire residents face a clear choice. Positive action from the Liberal Democrats, or more neglect from Labour."
