Nov 9, 2025, York Press: SEND Hub approved at St Martin’s School in Scarborough
A school in North Yorkshire has received the green light for a ‘desperately-needed’ special educational needs hub.
St Martin’s School at Holbeck Hill, Scarborough, can go-ahead with the construction of an SEND unit which is planned to open next September.
The Church of England Aided School developed the proposal with North Yorkshire Council and the Diocese of York, and will see the construction of an “irregular rectangular-shaped building” with solar panels on the roof.
The unit aims to “extend the main school facilities to provide additional teaching space for two classrooms that can be used independently from the rest of the school”. . . .
The scheme was approved by North Yorkshire Council, subject to conditions.
