Students at a North Tyneside school will be getting new facilities - and these pictures show what the new site will look like.
Construction work has started on new buildings at Whitley Bay High School. The project involves part-demolition of the existing main blocks, the sports hall and modular accommodation. Two blocks, built post-2000, will be kept and incorporated into the new development.
Many of the existing structures were built in the 1960s. They will make way for new buildings which will have a low carbon footprint and include features such as air source heat pumps and photovoltaic canopies.
