Here you will find a summary of the consultations or area reviews that are currently taking place or have been recently agreed. These include proposals for new schools, proposals to physically expand existing schools and proposals to change the current admission number of a school.
Many of the reviews are “desk-based” and conducted without any major change to the schools in an area. However, in a number of cases, a more formal process is required, involving consultation with colleagues, schools, pupils, parents and carers, councillors and the general public.
The 'downloads' section will give more information about a particular consultation and allow you to view or download documents relevant to that proposal. There is also a link to an archive page which lists past consultations that have taken place and the outcome of this.

The public consultation period has now closed for the primary school expansion proposals listed below and the proposals to expand SILC provision in Leeds.
