Schools (Consultation) (Scotland) Act 2010

Schools (Consultation) (Scotland) Act 2010

The Schools (Consultation) (Scotland) Act 2010 came into force on 5 April 2010. The act requires local councils to carry out consultations on any proposals they bring forward to close, relocate or make certain other changes to schools. It also requires HMIE to consider the educational aspects of any council proposal which falls under the terms of the act and to produce a report on these aspects to the council. The council must then produce and publish its own report on the results of its consultation, and the council report must include the HMIE report. In this section of our website we publish the reports which we have provided to councils on their proposals.
