John Gregg, Peterborough City Council's Director of Children's Services, said: "I am delighted that so many young people have been able to receive their choice of school. Education plays such a critical part in ensuring that children get the best start in life. Being able to read and write well means that children can go on and reach their potential and this starts with a secure attachment to school and a relationship with a brilliant teacher."
