Schools

Consultation Overview

We will consult on the proposal to enlarge the Year 5 and 6 intakes at our local schools due to demand in the area.

Why are we Consulting

It has come apparent that our local High Schools have become oversubscribed, and local children are having to go further afield to find a school placement. We need to consult on the viability of increasing the intake of Hugh Fields and Marchbank comprehensive.

Feedback

We Asked:  Shall we add more Year 5 and 6 places at the local high schools?
You Said:  The demand is there, but the schools infastructure could not cope with such an increase in numbers.
We Did:  Discussed and negotiated a new bus service for children having to go to a school outside the immediate area.
