New school building project
We’re on a journey to bring a fantastic new school building and welcoming learning environment for Mercia’s students!
From autumn term 2024, students will occupy a brand-new temporary building on site at Sunnyside, with a longer-term plan also underway to deliver a permanent new school building for the 2027-28 academic year.
While the building students will occupy in 2024 is a temporary solution, the school will not feel temporary at all. In fact, students will enjoy a two-storey school building which will include:
- Science labs
- Food tech facilities
- Drama studio
- Classrooms and IT suites
- Music room and practice rooms
- Library
- Canteen and dining area
Next to the main school building will also sit a fantastic new sports hall, with both soft and hard surface outdoor recreation areas close by.
