Proposed Coombe Wood school aims to have nearly 1,700 pupils

Proposals for a new secondary school in south London that will be built by Wates have been submitted for planning.

Architect Sheppard Robson has drawn up the 1,680-place scheme called Coombe Wood in Croydon, which will be part of the Folio Education academy trust, which is based in nearby Wallington and runs Wallington county grammar in Sutton.

The school will be built in south Croydon and cost £30m, running across 12,400m². The proposal for the scheme was submitted to the council back in October 2016.
