Millions of pounds are expected to be pumped into providing 200 more high school places at sites in Liverpool.
In a bid to meet the need for additional secondary school places, Liverpool Council is proposing to invest more than £6m in two schools to create hundreds of new places. A cabinet report earlier this year said by 2026, the city will be 370 places short for year seven pupils.
A cabinet breakdown ahead of its meeting on Friday has detailed how all good and outstanding schools have been asked if they can increase the number of places they offer. As a result, approval is being sought for the second phase of expansion at Archbishop Blanch CofE High School expansion which will create a further 50 places from next year.
