The site will include housing due for completion in summer 2017, but I don't know what type of housing.

The consultation is spefically about the decision or otherwise to set up a new school. This would be separate from any consultation on housing.

Hi Paul

Do you know what the timetable is for getting the new school built?  I have been looking at Islington's planning applications website but no sign of any application yet.

I think it will be part of the City of London Academy rather than a free school.

Islington ought to be making an announcement quite soon.

Hawkins Brown Architects have been appointed to design the site but no information has been released on their plans.

The timetable that I saw for it to open on site in 2017 required the planning application to be submitted at the end of last summer. It is likely that they are planning to use another site for at least the 2017 intake.
