Camden briefing note on the latest set of GLA forecasts/projections adopted for use by the Council.

School places planning forecasts are reviewed by the authority every year. The 2019 annual school places planning report highlights current capacity, pressures within the borough, forecasts of increasing or falling demand and reasons behind these, including potential impacts of changes within neighbouring authorities. It is linked to ambitions within Camden 2025. In 2025: ‘Camden should be safe, strong and open, and everyone should be able to contribute to their community, schools being a vital part of Camden’s community’. ‘Camden should be a clean, vibrant and sustainable place, within built and sustainable development’. Reporting fulfils our statutory duty to ensure there are sufficient school places in our local authority area for every child who wants one.
