The £4.4 billion Priority School Building Programme is rebuilding or refurbishing those school buildings in the very worst condition across the country. There are two phases of the programme covering a total of 537 schools.

Under the second phase of the programme, individual blocks of accommodation at 277 schools will have their condition need met. This includes Cromer Road School and the Pavilion Study Centre.

The Pavilion Study Centre is currently in the final stages of a feasibility study to consider the options available and determine which one will achieve best value for money. Work will commence on-site once the feasibility is completed and a contractor has been assigned. This is expected to occur between March and May 2018.

Cromer Road School has recently appointed a contractor and design development is now underway. Works will commence on site once planning permission has been received. This is expected to occur between January and March 2018.
