Consultees
As an Academy School, the Trust will be
required to carry out a Listening Period following a substantive
decision to close the school by the DfE. The Listening Period will
provide information on why the school is closing and is an
opportunity for stakeholders and other interested parties to submit

considers the following individuals and organisations to be
interested parties: the Local Authority, local district council,
parish council, county councillors, parents of any pupils at
schools affected by the closure including early years provision,
