Option KES2

This option is ideally located and can be delivered as part of the proposals for residential development at East Ashingdon. The planning application, which is in the process of being prepared, includes a land parcel which accords with that shown in option KES2 for the school improvements.

An access can be provided off Brays Lane with a bus turning circle to the north of the school buildings. The orientation of the site makes it conveniently located for either new school buildings, new sports pitches or both. The illustrative masterplan has been designed to reflect the school's requirements. It shows the bus turning circle located roughly half way between Brays Lane and the boundary with the school. It is envisaged that a covered walkway will then link the turning circle and the existing buildings. As shown on the illustrative masterplan, this site could accommodate two football pitches on the eastern side, leaving the area between the turning circle and the school buildings for further buildings, if required.
