Interesting question. I’d probably be more in favour of trying to get the park up to being that community space that it should be. Perhaps yesterday was a start ? There are so many opportunities up there – one being that old, unused, building in the middle. Renovate that, start using it (a pavilion for teas and coffees?), and maybe people would start using the park again ?
In terms of the school – the Tesco site has some benefits, but I get your point (and traffic would be an issue, clearly). A school should ideally be where everyone can walk to (but most dont seem to even now when they are both in the middle of the village).
Unfortunately, I suspect the ultimate location decision will be based on financial rather than community considerations…
