Council planning record

There are two main elements to the proposed development, a two storey new-build classroom block and two single storey extensions to the existing building. The new classroom block is proposed to the west of the existing playground and will provide: 6 classrooms, group room, pupil WCs, disabled/staff WC, hygiene room (Changing WC) and plant room. A small extension to the existing entrance area together with some internal remodelling will provide a new entrance lobby, reception area and enlarged staff facilities. A second extension, to the rear of the building will accommodate an extension to the existing hall and a small suite of rooms to provide a satellite facility for Birkett House Special School. As part of the works, the car park will be enlarged to provide an additional 15 spaces. An area of informal hard play area will be added in front of the new classroom block to replace the area lost to the extension works.
