A New Non-Denominational Secondary School in Kirkliston and associated Catchment Changes

Closed 31 Oct 2023

Opened 11 Sep 2023

Overview

We would like your views on the proposal that a new secondary school should be built on the Kirkliston Leisure centre site. 

The catchment area of the new school would be the same as that of the existing Kirkliston Primary School.   The new school would open in August 2028 at the earliest.

We asked people about this informally in June 2023.  We now think this proposal should be progressed.  This latest consultation is the formal statutory process necessary to establish a new school. 

What happens next

All comments received will be recorded and represented in the final outcomes report.  This report will also include Council officers responses to these representations. 

The outcomes report will be considered by the Education, Children and Families Committee on 24 January 2024.   The report will be published three weeks before the Committee date.
