Plans to build a £13m school for more than 200 children with special needs have been lodged.
Tameside council has applied to relocate Hawthorns School into a new building at the site of Longdendale Playing Field, in Mottram in Longdendale.
Hawthorns School is a primary age special school currently located on Lumb Lane in Audenshaw which shares a site with Aldwyn Primary school. It caters for pupils with a range of ‘complex’ special educational needs.
