The school, linked with the secondary academy opposite, will offer up to 60 reception places when it opens in September 2015.

Parents and residents are being invited to meet staff as part of a public consultation on the school.

Walthamstow Primary Academy will be part of schools group United.

The admissions events are being held on October 14 and 16 from 4.30pm-7.30pm, at Walthamstow Academy in Billet Road.
