Residents have been invited to have their say on the latest step in the proposed development of the first joint education campus in Cardiff, which could see three schools combined onto one site. Cantonian High School, Riverbank Special School, and Woodlands High School will be rebuilt together in Fairwater under the plans and all three will have greater capacity for pupils.
Work is expected to begin in 2023 and be completed by 2026 subject to planning and procurement. Members of the public have until July 11 to respond to a pre-application consultation which solicits views on a planning application for the enabling works associated with the project before it is submitted to Cardiff council's planning committee.
The enabling works include the establishment of temporary school buildings at the south of the site comprising classrooms, a reception, a sports hall, a kitchen, and a canteen. A temporary school car park and a temporary footpath from Fairwater Road to Doyle Avenue are also planned.
