In order to meet increasing demand for secondary school places in Elmbridge Borough the Cabinet Member is asked to approve the proposal to publish statutory notices and hold a public consultation to expand Heathside School.

 

Decision:

 

·         The school is enlarged by one form of entry (from seven FE to eight FE). Adding a net total of 150 places in Years 7 to 11 by 2020.

·         The school undertakes a programme of building remodelling on its present site to add teaching accommodation and improve the use of space on campus. This will enable the school to accommodate 1200 11-16 students (PAN 240) plus its sixth form which is not due to expand under this proposal

·         The expansion is effective from 1 September 2016 and is funded by Surrey County Council as part of its Basic Need Capital programme.
