School Place Provision EXE19-122 PDF 94 KB
EXECUTIVE – 21 NOVEMBER 2019 SCHOOL PLACE PROVISION Executive Summary The Council considered, through the Joint Committee at its meeting on 25 June 2014, the need for School Places to support the Borough and its future development. The importance of securing additional school places to support existing residents and the needs of future residents was identified as critical and the need for resources to do so were highlighted as a key component of the Community Infrastructure Levy. School Place provision remains a key infrastructure requirement to support the economic vitality of the Borough and the needs of existing parents. The Council has previously supported educational needs in the Borough through:- provision of new secondary school places by facilitating the development of the Hoe Valley School with the related Sportsbox and recreational facilities at Egley Road; identification of a site at Brookwood Farm as suitable for a new primary school; financial support to Woking College for science classrooms; financial support to Winston Churchill School for the Planetarium; development of community sports facilities at Bishop David Brown School together with replacement dining facilities for the school; and exploring the provision of a new site at Shey Copse for the relocation and expansion of Greenfield School with a provision of £21m included in the approved Investment Programme. In March this year the Executive provided a £6m loan facility to Greenfield School for it to acquire the site previously occupied by the International School of London (ISL); this was instead of pursuing the Shey Copse site which is immediately opposite. The acquisition of the site has enabled the early relocation and initial expansion of the school; the school commenced operation at the new site in September 2019. -
