Newark Nursery School Consultation

Inverclyde Council is seeking views on how Newark Nursery Class should be led from the start of the 2025/26 term.

The upcoming retirement of the head teacher means the council can explore different, and potentially better, ways of delivering early years education in the area. 

There are three options being considered with people being encouraged to have their say via a public consultation.

The proposals are as follows:

  • The nursery provision remains the same – a standalone nursery provision with a head teacher.
  • The nursery school is incorporated into Newark Primary School as a nursery class under the leadership of the head teacher of the Primary School.
  • The nursery school becomes a standalone Early Learning Centre (ELC) under the leadership of a Head of Centre.

Please follow the survey link on this page to submit your response.

Closing date is Sunday 8 December 2024.
