To meet the demand for school places, new schools may need to be built or changes made to existing schools.
Proposals for new schools
Where the need for a new school is identified, we seek proposals to run the school, through a consultation process.
No current proposals.
Past proposals
Past proposals and consultation closing dates are listed below:
- Proposal to establish a new forest primary school to serve Coalville (Closed 22 November 2023)
- Proposal to establish a new SEND school in Quorn (Closed 31 August 2023)

Proposals to make organisational changes to existing schools
We consult with the public on proposals to make organisational changes to existing schools, e.g. to increase the size of the school or to change the age range. The consultation normally lasts for up to six weeks.
