Tarleton Academy New Build
We are pleased to announce that after working with the Department of Education, followed by a detailed inspection of the school and many planning sessions, that Tarleton Academy is to have a brand-new school, built on the existing site.
50 schools have now been confirmed in the first wave a ten-year rebuilding programme, with more than 70% of the schools announced located in the North and Midlands and supported by £1 billion in funding. The first 50 projects announced by the government will mark the start of the School Rebuilding Programme, which is due to deliver 500 rebuilding projects over the next decade.
We are so pleased that in the next few years our students and staff will have access to modern, state-of-the-art facilities. Current plans will retain our existing sports hall, but we are looking forward to a brand-new swimming pool. The new school will be set much further back on the site, around where the existing sports hall is situated. We are taking seriously the impact on our neighbours and careful planning will ensure that the new build will be an improvement for everyone in the village and surrounding areas.
