Plans for this Monkwick Junior School expansion will go on show tomorrow
Blueprints for a state-of-the art school expansion are set to go on show for the first time.
Essex County Council’s plans for Monkwick Junior School are set to go on display tomorrow.
The project would see a new two-story teaching block built on the existing site in School Road, Colchester, providing two new classrooms, a studio, food technology room and special educational needs room.
An existing play area would also be extended, while additional car parking is also planned.
The scheme would create an extra 60 places in a bid to meet the growing demand for primary school places in the town.
Under the proposals, the school would be able to take its first intake of additional pupils in September this year, It is hoped the full expansion would be completed by September 2018.
Work is set to begin in November.
