To amalgamate Catterick Garrison, Wavell
Community Infant School and Wavell Community Junior School through
the technical closure of Wavell Community Junior School as a
separate entity and the enlargement and change of age range of
Catterick Garrison, Wavell Community Infant School to create a
single 3-11 primary school across both school sites, with effect
from 8 April 2024. • To reduce the PAN applicable to the
Reception Year of the newly amalgamated school to 60 for the
2024/25 academic year and beyond.
It is considered that learning and progress
can be even better if the two schools come together as a single
school. It is considered that an amalgamated school would deliver a
smoother transition between Key Stages and help to ensure that the
good progress made by children at Key Stage 1 is maintained and
built upon at Key Stage 2.
