The Edinburgh Local Development Plan identified Granton Waterfront as a Strategic Development Area. Current plans show that new developments will eventually deliver more than 5,000 new homes.
A new primary school in Granton Waterfront was included as an action in the Local Development Plan in 2016. Proposals for the new neighbourhood include a large site within the main development zone for a new primary school and nursery. A catchment area for the new primary school will be established following consultation.
This new catchment area could result in changes to the existing catchment areas of
- Craigroyston Primary School
- Granton Primary School
- Pirniehall Primary School
- Broughton High School
- Craigroyston Community High School.
Consultation
Consultation on the new school and catchment changes will occur from late August to early October 2024. The new primary school is expected to open in August 2028.
