Junior school in ‘shocking’ state to be knocked down and rebuilt

A JUNIOR school left in disrepair for years with scaffolding still in place will finally get a replacement building and bigger football pitch.

- 

Albany Junior School in Pasture Road, Stapleford, has been deteriorating for the past six years, notably with roof light problems and the building's layout no longer meeting modern teaching standards.

The roof light issue meant crash decks and scaffolding had to be installed four years ago, with staff and pupils having to exist alongside these ever since.
