Statutory Consultation regarding the merger of Fraserburgh North School and St Andrews School
Aberdeenshire Council are consulting on the merger of Fraserburgh North School and St Andrews School within a new Primary School located at the Fraserburgh Academy site.
The consultation period will run from 12 December 2022 until 24 February 2023.
The proposal is that:
- existing Fraserburgh North School and St Andrews School will close on completion of the new school building and education provision will begin as a merged primary school at the new site;
- all existing Fraserburgh North School and St Andrews School pupils enrolled at the point of closure would continue their education within the new Primary School once the building is completed.
This consultation is being undertaken in accordance with the Schools (Consultation) (Scotland) Act 2010. The Act requires that changes to the school estates, including the proposed relocation and merger of both schools, are subject to rigorous statutory consultation.
