Campion School set for £8.9 million expansion project
The schemes, some of which will utilise money from housing developers, are needed to deal with a growing school-age population with the spike in secondary schools expected to peak in September 2022.
Campion School in Leamington will see the biggest financial investment with £8.9m earmarked for work that will see the school expand to take an extra 550 pupils.
