EXPIRED Consultation: Monkleigh Primary School – proposal to lower age range

Devon County Council is consulting on a proposal to lower the age range of Monkleigh Community Primary School from 4-11 to 2-11 from January 2021. Monkleigh Pre-School, a Governor run Pre-School, is situated on the grounds of Monkleigh Primary School and takes 2, 3 and 4 years olds. This proposal is concerned with the pre-school becoming part of the school rather than operating as an extended service. If the proposal is approved, the main difference is that the pre-school will become a maintained Nursery Class, organised as a Foundation Stage Unit (Nursery and Reception class). Further information is available via: https://www.devon.gov.uk/haveyoursay/categories/education-and-schools/.

If you would like to comment on the proposal, please email the school admin@monkleigh-primary.devon.sch.uk by the deadline of 21 October 2020 (responses will be shared with DCC).
