Proposal for Holmleigh Primary School

Overview

Hackney Council is consulting on a proposal to expand Holmleigh Primary School to two forms of entry (2 classes per year group). This proposal is linked to another which proposes to close Sir Thomas Abney Primary School on 31 August 2025. The two proposals together would mean that the schools can be merged. All pupils at Sir Thomas Abney would be offered a place at the expanded Holmleigh school.

If following consultation Holmleigh does expand, it would move to the current Sir Thomas Abney site.

Please read the proposal document for Holmleigh Primary School for full information about the proposal and before sharing your views.

The consultation will close on 19 November at 5pm.

The decision about these proposals will be made following consideration of a number of factors, including the results of this survey.

We are also consulting on proposals to close or merge (amalgamate) five other primary schools, including the proposal linked to this consultation on the future of Sir Thomas Abney. If you wish to have your say on these proposals, follow this link: Proposed changes to Hackney primary schools
