Change of Age Range Consultation
Consultation on proposed Change of Age range from 4- to 7-year-olds to 3- to 7-year-olds of Finedon Infant School
As a member of the school and local community, you have a stake in the future of Finedon Infant School and therefore we are consulting with you about a potential change to the school’s age range.
We are proposing to change the age range of the school from 4- to 7-year-olds to 3- to 7-year-olds. The Board of Directors of The Learning for Life Education Trust (LfLET) wishes to establish a high-quality school-based nursery provision.
The Board of Directors of LfLET has the authority to propose this change and is the decision maker as per the DfE guidance ‘Making Significant Changes to an Academy’ October 2024. In line with the non-statutory guidance this consultation seeks the views and comments of all stakeholders involved with our school.
The consultation period runs for a minimum of three weeks between Wednesday 19th March 2025 to midday on Friday 11th April 2025 and the Board will consider all comments received during this time.
You can access full details of the proposed change in the Public Consultation document below:
