Future Schooling in Knowsley
Knowsley is on an ambitious journey to create a world class
education system with 21st century learning environments at the
heart of local communities. This journey is now proceeding at
a rapid pace.
It is our vision to transform Knowsley's education system and
create a service which better meets the needs of children, young
people and their families, and contribute to the wider delivery of
children's and neighbourhood services.
This will be achieved by providing facilities equipped with the
latest technology and teaching and learning will be transformed for
both students and teachers. Students will be encouraged to
stay at school longer and create a new sense of purpose which will
benefit the whole community.
Knowsley's £150m Building Schools for the Future (BSF) programme
will see the creation of seven new centres for learning, which
will replace the 10 existing secondary schools.
In addition to the BSF programme, Knowsley's primary and special
sectors will also receive significant investment. The first
phase will see the creation of three new primary schools and a new
state of the art special school in the borough.
