Your say matters
Our communities are changing all the time. When we work with Boards of Trustees to come up with options to meet the demand of students in particular areas, we look at the whole network rather than individual schools.
Planning for future growth, identifying where the best use of space will be, and ensuring all local children and young people can attend their local school, underpins our decisions on options.
Your say in this matters. Sharing your views and listening to each other’s ideas, suggestions and feedback on options through engagement and consultation helps ensure the network of schools is in the best shape to offer quality education opportunities – now and into the future.
