Consultation on the proposal to federate
Manor Infant School and Manor Junior School
A Manor family - Growing in the same direction
Monday 9th March 2026
Dear All,
Consultation on the proposal to federate Manor Infant School and Manor Junior School into Manor Schools
The Governors of Manor Infant School and Manor Junior School have been looking at ways of working even more closely together to make the best educational provision for children in our community.
Since September 2025, Manor Infant School and Manor Junior School have shared the leadership of a Headteacher on an interim basis. This has resulted in both schools going from strength to strength in a variety of ways.
We are proud of what we have achieved with the current arrangement, and we are keen to formalise this for the benefit of children, families, staff and our community.
The two current governing boards have therefore been exploring the idea of federating both schools. The documents attached explain what a federation is and what it might look like in practical terms.
We appreciate this might raise questions and we look forward to discussing these with parents, members of staff and other interested parties. We have provided a document containing a lot of the frequently asked questions which we hope will answer some of questions you may have but we will ensure there are plenty of opportunities for you to engage in this process, should you wish to.
This letter signals the start of the consultation process to federate the two schools. The consultation will run between Monday 9th March 2026 and Friday 1st May 2026 and has been designed to help us find out what you think about the proposal; we would like to hear your views.
The outcome will be reported to both governing bodies on Tuesday 5th May 2026. We will then make the decision whether to federate the schools.
Your sincerely
Ms Stacey Parsons Mr Peter Scrivens
