First look inside the new Paxman Academy as it rises from the ashes
THE teachers have been recruited, the new building kitted out…now Paxman Academy is preparing to welcome its first students.
The secondary school in Shrub End, Colchester, is being built by Essex County Council on the site of the former Alderman Blaxill School.
The 900-place school opens in September with 180 Year 7 students and is already oversubscribed.
