PARENTS in Nynehead have vowed to carry on the fight to keep the village primary school open despite the county's decision to close it.

Kathy Boyd, chairman of the Friends of Nynehead School, whose daughter, Elizabeth, seven, attends the school, told the WWN: "Parents are absolutely disgusted at the way we've been treated."

Members of Somerset County Council's execxutive board decided on Wednesday to proceed with a proposal to combine Oake and Bradford Community School with Nynehead Church of England School, ending 150 years of schooling in Nynehead.
