A second school with capacity for around 700 pupils will be needed to cater for Dargavel Village, Renfrewshire Council has confirmed.
Talks have been held with landowner BAE Systems about securing land for the facility, while councillors will be asked to give officers the green light to move forward with the plans at next month’s education board.
A statement has been released after further analysis suggested space could potentially be required for as many as 1,500 in the area by 2033.
