How long will the build take? If we are successful at the planning application stage, and planning permission is granted by Stratford-on-Avon District Council, construction is programmed to commence in Autumn 2021.

It is anticipated that the sports hall (phase 1) will be completed Summer 2022 with the main teaching block (phase 2) completed Autumn 2023. Final demolition and completion of all external areas is anticipated for Summer 2024.
