As the Deputy is probably aware there are currently three schools on the site in question. Two of these schools, however, are using the site on a temporary basis only and it is planned to ultimately permanently locate them on a site Ongar. The site itself at Littlepace will then accommodate two 16 classroom schools with a shared community facility. One of the school buildings has already been delivered and a project to provide the other is ahead of its target delivery date of September 2007. The completion of this building project will alleviate accommodation issues on the site.
