Consultation requirements when opening a new school
Part of the process of opening a new school is a *consultation. This is a Department for Education requirement under Section 10 of the Academies Act 2010. The consultation enables local residents, staff and governors from local schools, parents, councillors, community groups and any other interested parties to share their views.
The consultation period for Mulberry Academy London Dock ran from Monday 21st November to Friday 16th December 2022. This was an important step in our journey to opening . We listened to your views in order to provide you with the best school possible.
We were keen to ensure that we delivered a school that met local needs and requirements and welcomed your views. You shared these with us by completing a questionnaire.
*Please note this consultation is not related to any building or planning applications surrounding the new school; it is solely to consult on whether appropriate persons support the Trust to enter into a Funding Agreement with the Secretary of State for Education to run Mulberry Academy London Dock.
