Officers are engaging with stakeholders regarding the merger of King Edward and Fintry Schools.

A decision was made to mothball Fintry School from August 2025 due to the low roll expected for the 2025/26 session. Mothballing is the temporary closure of a school which does not, in itself, lead to statutory consultation.

There are useful links and documents on this project page regarding the Schools Consultation Act and the Place and Wellbeing Assessment Process.
