Notification letter

Dear Consultee,

In line with the requirements of the School Organisation Code 2018, we are writing to inform you about a proposal the Council is submitting in relation to a regulated alteration to a maintained school.

The proposal is in connection with:

  • Establishing a new Primary School through the amalgamation of Hendre Junior School and Hendre Infants School.

Both schools have been informally ‘collaborating’ since September 2022 and share the same Head Teacher with both Governing Bodies working together for the best interests of the school, pupils and wider community.

It is proposed that the current school sites would remain in operation but function as a single Primary school campus and there are no proposed changes to the existing shared catchment arrangements.

The consultation period will run from the 2nd September 2024 to the 15th October 2024.

Full details in relation to the proposal can be found at:
