Recent developments

The new building will be constructed on the school field and is scheduled to open in 2008, when the old building will be demolished.^[4] This is because the current one is in poor condition^[3] and money has to be poured in to keep it usable.^{[citation needed]} Work on the new building was expected to get underway at the end of the school summer holiday in 2006. Work was late in starting however and only began on 26th March 2007.^[5] The school's management have tried to involve the school's pupil council in the design and layout of the finished building, but the effect this had on the plans is unclear due to poor communication.^{[citation needed]} For the Manfred Mann album, see 2006 (album). ...
