Appleton Primary School new classroom

John Fareham and John Abbott report success in their support for Appleton Primary School to have a new foundation unit built in time for the new school year in 2013-14.

Cabinet approved the awarding of a contract for this work on 26th November. As things now stand, the Early Years Foundation Stage and Key Stage One classes are housed in separate buildings; these will be demolished when the new extension has been completed. Work was due to start on 7 January, but has now been put back to start on the 21st with preparatory work beginning some days beforehand and will be managed on behalf of the Council by NPS Humber. The delay was caused by not having enough time to buy in materials after Cabinet approved the contract. It is hoped that the works will cause as little disruption as possible, although we understand some pile-driving will be involved, but if it should prove otherwise we will, as with the building works at Kelvin Hall School, stand ready to pass local residents’ concerns on to the relevant parties.
