Decision details

To approve the business case for the project to expand the existing two form entry infant school to a two form entry primary school under the School Basic Need Programme. The project will increase the school from 180 to 420 places.

That the expansion and adaptation of the schools, as detailed in the submitted report,  be agreed in principle, subject to the consideration and approval of the detailed financial information for Earlswood Junior School, Redhill and Langshott Infant School, Horley, as set out in Part 2 of this agenda (agenda items 19 and 20 respectively)

Reasons for Decisions

The schemes deliver a value for money expansion and improvements to the schools and their infrastructures, which supports the Authority’s statutory obligation to provide additional school places and appropriate facilities for local children in Surrey.  The individual projects and building works are in accordance with the planned timetables required for delivery of the new accommodation at each school.
