Welcome to the new Goat Lees Primary School Website...!

An exciting new project, led by a collaboration group of eight local Headteachers, is beginning here in Goat Lees.

This site will enable you to gain general information about the building project, a contact point for communication with the Headteachers' Collaboration Group and include other information that we hope you will find useful.

Watch this space as we start the journey together... 

Planned opening date  SEPTEMBER 2012

• The Ashford Primary Headteachers’ Collaboration will lead this project for your community.
• It is proposed that the school will open with a full Foundation Stage class (4 to 5 year olds) of up to 30 pupils and some mixed age classes in the other year groups.
• The school will eventually have seven classes, one for each year group in the primary phase.
• Architects are currently being chosen to submit proposals for their design of the school to the KCC.
