Plans to merge a Spennymoor school and nursery to allow pupils to attend a new multi-million pound facility have been given the green light.
COUNCILLORS are to discuss plans to merge a school and nursery so that pupils can attend a new multimillion-pound facility. Proposals to house Ox Close Primary and Oxclose Nursery schools in one primary school at a replacement new building on Durham Road in Spennymoor will be discussed at the virtual meeting next Wednesday. The new school, which Durham County Council has allocated the necessary funding of £13.1million towards, would be built on the former site of Tudhoe Grange Comprehensive School. If the proposals are given the go-ahead the site could be built and open to staff and pupils by September 2024.
