(UK) Shropshire: New special school 'exciting'/'fantastic opportunity'

Mar 7, 2022, Shropshire Newsroom: Residents invited to share their views on exciting plans for two new schools in Bowbrook, Shrewsbury https://newsroom.shropshire.gov.uk/2022/03/exciting-plans-new-schools-shrewsbury/

Residents are invited to attend a public consultation tomorrow (Tuesday 8 March 2022) at Shropshire Conference Centre, Mytton Oak Road, Shrewsbury, to share their views on the proposals for a new primary school and special educational needs and disability (SEND) school on Squinter Pip Way in Bowbrook, Shrewsbury.... The proposals will comprise the building of two new schools which will be run separately, with the primary school being funded by Shropshire Council and operated by The 3-18 Education Trust. The SEND school is funded by the Department for Education and will be managed by the Youth Engagement Schools (YES) Trust…. Kirstie Hurst-Knight, Shropshire Council’s Cabinet member for children and education, said:- “It’s very exciting to see the proposed plans for a new primary and SEND school for Shrewsbury. ’This is an exciting opportunity to work with our partners to expand and enhance the range of both primary and specialist provision already on offer for Shropshire children. “These two new schools are an important and exciting development as we look to meet the demand for school places in this area of Shrewsbury – but this really is good news for the whole of Shropshire. “Our aim is to ensure that Shropshire children with SEND receive the same opportunities in life as other children and young people. With the number of pupils with SEND requirements – both in Shropshire and nationally – rising steadily, this is a fantastic opportunity to build a school that caters for the needs of those pupils. It will also complement the provision already in place in the county.”
