Parents in Rushcliffe may have better options to send their children to a local school soon if a planned initiative goes ahead.
Conservative MP Ruth Edwards is working with Nottinghamshire County Council to expand the number of school places available in Rushcliffe.
Rushcliffe Spencer Academy has submitted a proposal to the Department for Education to expand the number of places they can provide. This will include 12 forms of entry, taking the total number of pupil places across all years to 2,310 including Sixth Form.
