Bromsgrove MP Mr Sajid Javid at Mount Pleasant School Farm with Year 3 pupils from Perry Beaches Junior School, Great Barr, Birmingham.

Bromsgrove Member of Parliament, Mr Sajid Javid, has made an ‘eleventh hour’ visit to a Birmingham children’s farm threatened by council budget cuts.

Mr Javid toured Mount Pleasant School Farm near Kings Norton and met with school children and representatives from The Worgan Trust, the charity that has run the farm school for over 40 years.

Said Mr Javid, “I am very impressed, I think it is a hugely valuable facility that has been serving the local community for decades. You can see how much the children learn and how engaged they are.”

The School Farm he said is not “just about learning about animals and animal welfare” but how these issues link with curriculum subjects such as mathematics.
