As reported by Mark Francois MP, Essex County Council are proposing to refurbish and repurpose the former Chetwood primary school on Gandalfs Ride as a ‘sixth form’ annex to a new Special Needs school.
The school will cater for up to forty, sixth-form SEN pupils, out of an overall 190 special needs pupils.
The operation of the existing Chetwood Family Hub will be unaffected.
