Education bosses are seeking the green light from their planning colleagues for a brand new Dumfries High School.
Dumfries and Galloway Council’s education department last week submitted a formal planning application seeking permission for a new build of the secondary school at a cost of £48m.
The planning papers described the development as: “Erection of secondary education facility with detached plant rooms and ampitheatre, formation of 3G pitch with viewing terrace, science and wellbeing gardens, external dining and seating terraces, attentuation basins, 72 car parking spaces, landscaping and association works (demolition of existing school, David Keswick Athletics Centre and Greystone Foundation Building).”
