In July 2023 the amalgamation of Lyndhurst Infant School and Chesswood Junior School onto one site to create an all through primary school was approved.
A detailed feasibility study has now been undertaken and plans developed for the new school, called Homefield Primary School, to be created on the Chesswood Road site, that will include a 21 place Special Support Centre.
The Cabinet Member for Children and Young People, Learning and Skills will be asked to approve the allocation of funds required to undertake the detailed design work in order for the project to progress.
