As a secondary school in Cranbrook is set to close, some say it will actually improve students' futures

One Kent County Councillor says that the closure of a Cranbrook secondary school will benefit student who are having to move.

High Weald Academy will be shutting down by the end of this academic year, leaving hundreds of pupils forced to find other options.

One parent whose child attended the school says the move was disastrous, but Councillor Sean Holden says students' academic futures will improve.
