DESC rejects recommendation of independent report
The former education minister says she would have supported a recommendation to close eight Manx primary schools.
It's after a review into the current funding system for education on the Island said the move could save £3.6 million.
The Department of Education, Sport and Culture says it does not support that recommendation.
But Julie Edge says she would have been prepared to make tough decisions when she was in charge:
£41K spent on encouraging people to shop local
DfE says schemes have been 'generally well received'
Baton of Hope to come back to Isle of Man
'Stand Up to Suicide' message continues to be spread
CoC 'keen' for continuity of sidecar racing at TT
Meetings to be held in coming weeks following review
2026 Manx Grand Prix to begin today
Nearly two weeks of action planned for Snaefell Mountain Course
