South West Catchment Review • Tom Wood • Councillor Ian Perry , Convener of Education, Children and Families Committee • Lorna Sweeney , Schools and Lifelong Learning Senior Manager Quality, Improvement and Curriculum • Robbie Crockatt , School Estate Planning Manager • Elaine Watson , School Estate Planning Officer 2

Why are we here? • Informal consultation November 2017 – June 2018 • Education, Children and Families Committee, 21 June 2018 • Option 1 agreed to be taken forward to statutory consultation 3

Communication and Consultation • Two public meetings • Consultation Hub • Advert in Currie / Balerno News • Letters to parents / carers • Letters to affected residents • Education Scotland • Elected members • Community Councils • Local groups • Childcare providers • Unions 4

Why is a catchment change proposed? • To reduce accommodation pressure at Currie Primary School • Nether Currie has capacity to support additional demand • Proposals mean new accommodation is only required at Dean Park PS • Opportunity to align school boundaries with Community Council boundaries • Balerno HS catchment area geographically linked 5

Summary of Proposals • Section of Currie PS realigned to Nether Currie PS – no change to secondary school catchment areas • Section of Currie PS realigned to Dean Park PS – realignment of secondary school catchment areas required • Would affect P1 and S1 registrations from August 2020 and new registrations • No mandatory transfer of pupils attending another school 6
