Changing School Provision in King Edward & Fintry

Welcome to the King Edward and Fintry Schools Survey

We’d like to hear your views on the proposed changes to school provision in King Edward and Fintry. Officers are currently engaging stakeholders on a potential merger of both schools. Fintry School was mothballed at the end of the 24/25 term. This survey is part of the Shaping Places for Wellbeing work, which helps Aberdeenshire Council put community voices at the heart of local decision-making.

Your feedback really matters. By sharing your thoughts, you’ll help us understand what these changes could mean for local people and make sure community priorities are fully considered.

The survey should take around 10 minutes to complete. All answers will be kept confidential, and results will only be shared in a way that does not identify individuals.

Thank you for taking the time to get involved — your input will help shape the future of your community.
