PROPOSED AMALGAMATION OF DOWNS WAY SCHOOL AND ST. MARY'S C OF E JUNIOR SCHOOL PDF 207 KB
Surrey County Council (SCC), in partnership with the Southwark Diocesan Board of Education and the Governing Bodies of St. Mary’s C of E Junior School and Downs Way School, has undertaken informal consultation on a proposal to amalgamate the two schools, with a view to creating a new all-through primary school from September 2018. It is also proposed to expand Key Stage 2 provision at the school from this date. The consultation was conducted between 24 July 2017 and 4 September 2017.
The Cabinet Member is asked to review the education rationale for the project and summary of the consultation process/feedback provided within this report and associated Annexes and, on that basis, decide whether to proceed with publishing the associated Statutory Notice, which represents the next stage of the process for the implementation of this proposal.
Additional documents: Decision: The Cabinet Member for Education approved the publication of a statutory notice to:
i. close Downs Way School, effective from 31 August 2018; ii. alter the lower age limit of St. Mary’s C of E Junior School, in order that the age range broadens from 7-11 to 4-11, effective from 1 September 2018; and iii. enlarge the formal capacity of this Primary School. From 360 places (i.e. the current capacity of St. Mary’s C of E Junior School) to 660 places, effective from 1 September 2018.
