ANGRY mums have been protesting on the roof of a primary school non-stop for five days now.

Lewisham Bridge Primary School, in Elmira Street, Lewisham, will be replaced with an all-age foundation school on the same site, due to open fully in spring 2011.

But Lewisham Council plans to demolish the school this summer have been put on hold following the decision to grant the building Grade II listed status.

Pupils have already been re-located to a site in Deptford and several furious mums took to the roof of Lewisham Bridge in protest last Thursday (April 23).

The mums have been on the roof day and night and have vowed to continue the protest until the council returns pupils to the school.

Protestor Eleanor Davies, of Ermine Road, Lewisham, sends her five-year-old son Oliver to the school.

The 40-year-old said: “We have been getting lots and lots of support from other people and we still haven’t heard from the council.

“Parents are very very upset about what’s going on.”

The mothers will decide their next step this evening, if no progress is made.

A Lewisham Council spokeswoman said: "We respect this group’s right to protest, but we have provided many opportunities for parents and other interested parties to put forward their views.

“Lewisham Council plans to arrange a further meeting next week to give parents a chance to discuss how well their children are settling into their temporary accommodation and any concerns they may still have about the decant arrangements."
