TWO schools look likely to have won a reprieve in a major shake-up of first and middle schools in Adur.

West Sussex County Council has published its plans to close some schools and merge others into primary schools after months of consultations with parents, staff and governors.

The council wants to reorganise schools so pupils go to secondary school aged 11, rather than at 12, and to reduce the number of places because of the district's declining birth rate.
