Future Schooling in Knowsley
Consultation on the reorganisation of primary schools
The council has obtained £19M to build three new schools
in the borough, including a brand new school in the Northwood area
of Kirkby, a new school in North Huyton and a new school in
Halewood.
In order to build the schools we must reorganise some of the
primary schools.
Northwood

by downloading the Northwood leaflet. The leaflet provides
information on the full proposal and about the school competition
process we have to hold in order to establish the new school in
Kirkby.
North Huyton
The proposal for North Huyton involves the closure of St
Dominic’s Catholic Infant and Junior schools and the
establishment of a new build joint Catholic and Church of England
primary school on the site of the joint Catholic and Church of
England Centre for Learning as part of a learning campus. Download the St Dominic's leaflet for more
information.
Halewood

the original proposal for Southern Primary Support Centre and
Greengates School in Halewood. Find out more by downloading
