St Thomas' school told it will keep its identity
Faith in collaborative schooling - the reason behind students' move from St Thomas' Church of England school in Douglas to Scoill Vallajeelt.
Sixty students at the smaller 19th century facility in the centre of the capital will relocate in September 2018.
They're breaking the mould - hosting a faith school and a non-faith school in the same building hasn't been done on Island before.
It's caused some controversy and apprehension amongst parents.
Caroline Savin is the Schools Improvement advisor - she explains what's being done to hold onto St Thomas' identity:


Overnight sailings cancelled due to adverse weather
Rapist who 'terrorised' his victim told his sentence was 'entirely justified'
Complaints process for health system changed
Discovery of oiled birds 'makes a mockery of our biosphere status'
Charges now in place for those sending parcels to the EU
