CONSULTATION ON ADDITIONAL
SECONDARY SCHOOL PROVISION IN HACKNEY
The Learning Trust and the Council believe there is a case to increase the number of secondary school places
available in Hackney by opening a new provision in September 2014.
The number of children transferring to secondary school annually has been fairly stable over a number of
years; around 2200–2300 children. The additional places provided by the new Academies in Hackney have
sufficed to offer enough places. This will remain the situation until 2013. In 2014, the number of children
transferring is expected to be higher: an additional 150–200 children compared to now.
Click on the title link above or the PDF icon top-right for more details.
We have arranged a drop in session between 5pm and 6.45pm on Wednesday 22 June at Berger Primary
School, Anderson Road, E9 6HB. Representatives from The Learning Trust will be on hand to tell you more
about the proposal and you will have an opportunity to share your views.

Consultation on adding a sixth form at Clapton Girls Technology College
Clapton Girls Technology College is a successful school in Hackney for girls aged 11-16. Over the last four years standards have continued to improve.
There are currently too few places at sixth form colleges and schools in Hackney. Many students leave Hackney to go to sixth form colleges in other boroughs. The Learning Trust is trying to increase opportunities for students to stay in Hackney
We propose that a mixed sixth form college is added to Clapton Girls’ Technology College. The sixth form college would have up to 200 places. The first students would be admitted in September 2007. Some necessary changes to the school would be made immediately, however Clapton Girls’ is part of Building Schools for the Future and the buildings will be improved as a part of this programme
