Astatutory consultation on a proposal to realign the catchment areas of Currie Primary School, Nether Currie Primary School, Dean Park Primary School, Currie High School and Balerno High School commences today, Tuesday 23 October 2018. At this stage no decisions have been taken. The public consultation will run until 5pm on Monday 3 December 2018.
Following a significant period of informal consultation, the Council’s Education, Children and Families Committee agreed on 9 October 2018 that a statutory consultation should proceed on the proposal to realign school catchment areas in the South West of the city. The proposals are being put forward to address the increasing pressure on the accommodation at Currie Primary School. The proposals do not require that any existing pupil move to a different school.
