I AM afraid that your report on the £2.3m investment in Dyson Perrins CE High School (Malvern Gazette, May 4) contains an important mistake.

The money for this project is not coming from the National Lottery - it is part of the record levels of investment in school buildings from the Labour government.

This year, three times as much is being spent on school buildings as was spent in the last year of the Conservative government.

That's why it's not only my old school, but many others in the town as well, that will benefit from improvements in their buildings.
