Glasgow are launching two public consultations
a) Secondary School Entry Criteria
The purpose of this consultation is to align the entry criteria across all 30 Glasgow city council mainstream secondary schools by making all 30 delineated secondary schools, i.e. the single entry criterion for all secondary schools being a defined geographical catchment area.
b) Placing Request Criteria for Mainstream Schools
The purpose of this consultation is to review and improve the placing request criteria for mainstream schools (primary and secondary).
Both consultations will run until 24 September 2018 with six public meetings arranged.
Further information on the proposals is set out in the statutory documents in relation to these consultations, which are available on the Glasgow City Council website at www.glasgow.gov.uk/schoolconsultations
