West deputies Andrea Dudley-Owen and David De Lisle have confirmed their own lack of interest in pursuing the idea, which committee president Paul Le Pelley has said they would make a decision on by 2020 at the latest.
A merger would be in a bid to reduce staff salaries and consolidate costs, with La Houguette currently having the smallest average class size of any island primary school.
