• Informal Consultation 2009

In May and June 2009, the Local Authority asked interested parties to respond to an initial consultation document setting out how it plans to create additional places. For primary school planning purposes, the Borough is divided into four planning areas:

• Kingston Town,
• Surbiton,
• Maldens & Coombe and
• South of the Borough.

The need for additional places is different in each planning area and this was set out in the consultation document along with a number of options to meet each area’s need.

A summary has been written of the responses received. This information was used to inform the report that went to the Council Executive on 7 July 2009. Both reports are available below.

The Executive of 7 July 2009 resolved that

1. the proposals, including feedback from the informal consultation which requests the Authority to identify further sites for new schools, be noted;
2. a further report be submitted to the Executive in November 2009 on the proposed Strategy, after further consultation with all interested parties; and
3. it be noted that proposals for statutory consultation will commence no earlier than late in 2009.
