New Dundee housing development finally set for consultation on primary school

A new-build housing development in Dundee is finally set to be consulted on a local primary school - years after it was first promised by council bosses.

The Western Gateway community on the city's westernmost edge has been calling out for a school as part of what they claim was a promised package when the homes were approved several years ago. Dundee City Council had previously resisted calls to build a school for the community, where hundreds of houses have been built and sold and hundreds more remain in the works.

Education bosses later reversed their decision, getting permission for a school approved in principle by city planners last year. Locals have welcomed the news of consultation after years of pressuring the council to give them the facilities they feel they deserve.
