The school, on High Storrs Road, has undergone significant expansion and modernisation within the last decade including the installation of a successful small multi-use games area (MUGA).
It now wants to build another MUGA and a new running track on its long established playing fields which are a struggle to use in wet weather because of sloping.

In the planning application, agents SLA Design, on behalf of the school, said: “This will provide a new level and vastly improved all year round playing surface for the pupils. The embankments created by the cut and fill will also provide tiered areas for spectators to sit on at events such as school sports days.”
