N. England
Forty extra places are to be created at newly built school in Huddersfield for children and young people with complex autism.
Woodley School and College will relocate to a new site as part of a "major investment" by Kirklees Council into special school provision.
The move will increase the number of places for pupils aged five to 15 from 140 to 180.
A consultation has begun on the preferred site for the school.
Currently, Woodley School and College is at a site off Dog Kennel Bank and operates from multiple buildings. . . .
The council said before it applied for planning permission it wanted to hear people's views and urged them to take part in the consultation, which runs until 17 June.
