Expansion works for Ballakermeen confirmed

Funding has been granted for major expansion works at Ballakermeen High School.

The money will go towards relieving the burden on the cramped sixth form block and dining room, whilst also creating an additional study area, four new classrooms and a tutorial room.

The works have been deemed necessary to cope with an ever growing number of pupils opting to stay on for higher education.

Local residents have already seen the plans and it’s thought work will commence shortly.
