This Thursday sees the public consultation event held in Bankhead Academy at 19:00. Please come to this and show your support for the school. The parent council and PTA are meeting shortly beforehand to help out with clearing up anything you may feel needs to be addressed as well as just provide someone to sit with!
If you wish to view the consultation document it is available by following this link (.pdf file) and there is a hard copy in the school.
The parent council/PTA have developed their own views on key points requiring attention and would encourage all parents to speak with us with any concerns and to find out our opinions.
I’ve been forwarded this email from Lynn, our Chairperson, in respect of the proposed after school care currently attempting launch.
Dear All,
Many thanks to the 5 parents who attended the meeting held at the Beacon Community Centre on Wed 10th Sept.
A short presentation was given by CLICC, before the floor was opened up to the parents for questions, after which, the group agreed that CLICC should take on the management of the project.
CLICC will now proceed to write their own business plan before registering with the Care Commission. This is a process that can take anything from 3 to 6 months, but due to the work that has already been put in place by the Development Officers, the process will hopefully not take quite as long.
All further developments will be carried out by CLICC, and I imagine that they will contact families from all three schools in due course.
Best wishes for the future
Kind regards

Hopefully we’ll have a fully functioning out-of-school care system set up soon in Bucksburn/Newhills.
Well done Stoneywood school on achieving their goal of status-quo. Now Bucksburn and Newhills…
“We propose to go to consultation on a new school for Bucksburn and Newhills, a suggestion that has fairly widespread support within the local community. Neither of these two schools are fit for purpose and a new school will complement the new Bucksburn Academy giving the area two new schools fit for the 21st century.”
The words of Councillor Kirsty West.
Is this true?
