Castle Hall School in Mirfield close and its pupils moved to Mirfield Free Grammar;
The transfer of all Dewsbury's sixth form students to either Mirfield or Heckmondwike;
Westborough High School and Birkdale High School close;
A new academy to replace both schools built at Westborough;
Earlsheaton Technology College expanded;
Thornhill Community Science College expanded;
The possible closure of the sixth form at St John Fisher.
