The session will gather public opinions on the proposal, as the future 'Broomhills' housing development is projected to increase pupil accommodation pressures by 2020.
A site based in the development site has been identified as a potential location, and is located to the south of Frogston Road East and between Burdiehouse Road and Broomhills Road.

Councillor Cammy Day said: "The significant housing development planned for south east Edinburgh means we will need a new primary school in the area because of expected accommodation pressures.
"The statutory consultation starts today and allows parents and school communities an opportunity to have their say on plans for the new primary school and related catchment changes."
The consultation will run until Friday, 03 March, with a report scheduled to go before the council in June.
