Andrew Marvell Business and Enterprise College is to be rebuilt on the current site, with students staying on site during the build programme as the school is part demolished in phases.
A single, four-storey block, will replace the separate individual buildings at the school, reducing the time spent travelling between lessons and overall making the running of the school much more efficient.
As an already well-used community school, the new building will enhance interaction with the public, through theatre space, drama and dance studios, a fitness suite and a library. There will also be a six-court sports hall and a floodlit all-weather pitch. Family services and a customer service centre will also be provided as part of the new school.
