School community 'delighted' as expansion plans given green light
www.dailyecho.co.uk
STUDENTS and staff are “delighted” after permission was granted to expand a Southampton secondary school. Planning permission has today been granted by Test Valley Borough Council to expand Saint George Catholic College in Swaythling. ![]()

Our expansion proposal for the Swaythling secondary school is to create a single-storey extension infilling the courtyard space at the front of the school, providing a more secure, attractive and stimulating entrance. This expansion, designed by the council’s Design Services, includes a new library and enlarged dining facilities. The council’s in-house team have taken a ‘fabric first’ approach with the design with increased insulation for walls, floor and roof, including triple glazed windows, in line with best practice which contributes to the city’s net zero carbon targets. ![]()

Construction is planned to start spring 2022 with the new school facilities due to be ready for the following Autumn term in September 2023. ![]()
