The expansion of the following schools, as detailed in the report, be agreed in principle noting that the approval of the detailed financial information for each school would be considered as part of agenda item 17 in Part 2 of the meeting:
(i) Burpham: Primary School (Increase by 220 places to 430)
(ii) Cranmere: New Primary School (Increase by 360 places to 630 plus 26 pre-school places)
(iii) Goldsworth: Primary School (Increase by 180 places to 630)
(iv) West Ewell: Infant School (Increase by 90 places to 360)
(v) Portesbery: New Special School (Increase by 35 places to 105)
Reason for decision
The schemes deliver a value for money expansion to the schools, which supports the Authority’s statutory obligation to provide additional school places 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.
