Mark Visits Tibshelf Infant & Nursery School

Mark Fletcher MP, Cllr James Barron and headteacher Zoe Andrews at Tibshelf Infants and Nursery

Last Friday, I had the absolute pleasure of a tour around Tibshelf Infant and Nursery School - they have created some wonderful outside spaces for the children to play and learn. I would like to thank Mrs Andrews and the children for showing us around.

I will continue to work with our local Headteachers to improve school standards and ensure every child in the Bolsover constituency can reach their full potential.
