River Beach Primary School in Littlehampton, part of the Schoolsworks Academy Trust, has been identified as requiring expansion as it has been accommodating a bulge class of 30 pupils since September 2021.
In November 2020 the then Cabinet Member for Education and Skills approved a decision to invest S106 funding into Education Infrastructure projects at a number of Schools across West Sussex (Decision ES10 (20/21) refers). This included the proposal to use some of this funding to create additional pupil places at River Beach Primary School
A procurement has been undertaken and this report seeks approval to award the contract for the construction works to expand the school.
