Does anyone know why some of Rye Oak Primary School's 1900 buildings have been pulled down to make way for a New Early Years Centre? And what are the council executives plans, if any, for the green space in front of the Old Nunshead where the old Early Years centre still is?


Why did the Council Executive decide to go ahead without the proposals being put forward for consultation or any engagement with the wider community. Apparently they only consulted parents with children currently at the centre.


Would they behave the same way in other areas?


Should they not have thought about expanding the facilities at Rye Oak so as to provide Nunhead & Peckham Rye with a primary school whose local support and new facilities would give it a chance to develop into a stronger primary school

According to this, consultation was planned with Rye Oak staff, parents and children, Nunhead Green staff, parents and children, Play service staff, parents and children, immediate residents and Children Centre practitioners and partners.

Interesting, Sounds a lot, but in fact most of the children are at the centre are between 1 & 6 and at the school 5 & 10...so that?s daft.


As for the staff - they are certainly not all Nunhead residents, as for immediate residents I would love to know what that means - friends living opposite had no idea? So really a comprehensive list boils down to............not really a consultation?


Doing some other research it seems that Local council members were not even informed - How the hell does that happen? Surely someone has a duty to tell someone? Who?s on this bleeding executive?

AFN, I never thought that I might agree with you (!), but consultation should have at least included local councillors. There may be a bigger issue about education resources in the area and any consultation needs to also look at the wider area and long term strategies.

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
