Common School Day Feasibility Consultation

Overview

East Lothian Council is committed to reducing the poverty related attainment gap, raising the attainment and achievement of our children and young people and improve inclusion, wellbeing and equality. In order to support the delivery of this commitment, at the Council’s Cabinet meeting, 12 June 2018, approval was given to undertake a feasibility study in relation to the Educational Benefits arising from a common secondary school day.

As a result East Lothian Council Education Service is undertaking a feasibility study and consultation to gather views on the following proposals:

• The introduction of a common secondary school day
• The introduction of a 32 period week for secondary schools
• Increased contact time in primary schools for P1 and P2 if this reflects Best Value
