Waltham Forest Council is set to review its school estate as part of a rationalisation plan, following discussions at the Children and Families Scrutiny Committee meeting on 10 September 2025.

The decision to add an item on the rationalisation of the school estate to the forward plan was made during a discussion of the Scrutiny Report and the Draft Forward Plan 25-26. Rosie Whillock, Scrutiny Officer, had requested any additions to the Forward Plan.

The committee was chaired by Councillor Sharon Waldron. The agenda for the meeting is available online.
