Six “crumbling and dilapidated” Nottinghamshire schools have been named in a list of sites to be refurbished or rebuilt under a national Government scheme. Three of the schools are in Mansfield, and the rest are in Hucknall, Chilwell and Ollerton.
It comes as part of the Government’s Schools Rebuilding Programme which says it will create sites “fit for the future”. The new buildings will be more energy efficient for future winter weather and will be net-zero on carbon emissions.
Ministers say old facilities will be replaced with “modern education environments”. No details have yet been published about whether the Nottinghamshire sites will have full rebuilds or major refurbishments.
