Ambitious re-build plan for 11 Retford schools

NOTTS County Council has announced ambitious plans to completely re-build 11 schools in Retford and the surrounding area.

The authority is hoping to give a makeover to 55 schools county-wide as part of a £2bn Government scheme to re-build schools considered to be in the worst state of repair.

Its bid for the Priority Schools Building Programme is to be considered by the council’s cabinet on 12th October before submission to the Department of Education.
