Amalgamating Nevill Road Infant School and Nevill Road Junior School into a single primary school

Following the announcement that the Headteacher at Nevill Road Junior School is leaving the school at the end of the summer term 2026 to take up a new post, Stockport Council has taken this opportunity to embrace our commitment to engage with schools and local communities about how we achieve our vision for our children and young people.

We believe that amalgamating Nevill Road Infant School and Nevill Road Junior School into a single primary school will enhance the offer provided by both schools.  The amalgamated primary school will work in the same school buildings.  The proposed Published Admission Number of the amalgamated primary school will be 60.

The coming together of both schools will contribute to our shared vision for the children and young people of Bramhall.

We are seeking views on the proposals and full details are available in the consultation document available in the related information section.  This consultation is the first of two consultations required by law to make the necessary changes to amalgamate the schools for September 2026. 

Following this consultation, the views expressed will be taken into account before a decision is made about whether to formalise the proposals.

The statutory proposals must be published within 12 months of the end of the initial consultation period.  If statutory proposals are published, there will be a further period for interested parties to express their views before a final decision is made.
