Planning application
Site 250 Metres East Of 11 West Shore Road Edinburgh
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
New two-stream primary school, nursery, and Enhanced Support Base (ESB) at Granton Waterfront, alongside an outline strategy to accommodate future expansion to a three-stream school. The proposals form an integral part of the wider Granton Waterfront Development Framework and have been developed in close coordination with the Phase 1 masterplan to ensure the school is successfully integrated within the emerging urban context.

The process from here
This application is with City of Edinburgh for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.
The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.
About this record
Reading the register
This page mirrors an entry on the statutory planning register that City of Edinburgh is required to keep. The published feed for this record does not state which type of application it is, which is common for older entries and for some council systems; the register entry on the council portal will say, alongside the case officer and any consultation dates.
Every planning application follows the same broad path: submission, validation, publicity, then a decision by officers or committee. Our guide to planning application types explains the common types and what each can approve.
