Plans for a new 420 capacity school on the site of a former swimming pool and day centre are set to be approved this week. The three-storey building would be built on the site of the Jubilee centre on Darley Street in the Halliwell area of Bolton.
The purpose-built primary school would be the permanent home for the Olive Primary School, run by the Star Academies Trust. The school is currently on a temporary site at Ashton House, Waterloo Street.
The plans are set to be decided on Thursday at a meeting of Bolton Council’s planning committee. Other areas covered by the application include a multi-use games area and a designated drop off and pick up zone.
