Delay to new West Dunbartonshire classrooms for additional support pupils

Delays in the development of three temporary classrooms for children with additional support needs have not impacted learning experiences, according to West Dunbartonshire Council bosses.

The accommodation in the Kilpatrick School Campus, which would include a sensory room, was initially expected to be installed in 2022/23 and allow children with ASN (additional support needs) currently placed outside West Dunbartonshire to receive an education in their own local authority as long as it was suitable.

Despite the delay at Kilpatrick, plans to redevelop the former Riverside Early Learning and Childcare Centre (ELCC) to create a school for severe and complex learners are progressing well with the building expected to be completed in time for school session 2024-2025.
