We have a brand new school on what was a deralict old school site, that's got to be a POSITVE thing for the locality and environment. It further provides schooling for local children, Another POSITIVE outcome. It helps with reducing the environmental impact with less travelling needed to school. A further Positive. As the school has green space across the road (the Common and Park), is it not a sensible thing that the school chilren can use it for their sports, again a POSITIVE thing. Why the objection not to allow them to use it. Peckham Rye Commmon is common land, my understanding is as such it can be used by anyone, hence being called "common land". Thirty plus years ago, I went to a local school on the other side of Peckham. We used Peckham Rye Common for our weekly sports lessons. At least Harris East Dulwich Boys' school is using common sense and to using local facilities. I fail to see anything negative and much preper seeing a brand new modern building being used to teach local children, rather than an old victorian, burnt out shell of a building. I would have thought the neighbouring residents also prefer the former.
