From a Cranbrook Town Council Facebook page, we learn the following from the town council’s objection to the siting of Gypsy and Travellers sites near the town:

“Cranbrook currently has two schools to accommodate the influx of children that would naturally be part of any Gypsy or Traveller site.St Martin’s is already working at capacity. This is a school that already has a significantly high proportion of children with varying degrees of Special Education Needs.The new Cranbrook Education Campus has a current intake where over 50% of pupils require extra resources.”
