But the school plans to move to a new permanent building in North Horsham in September 2020. It will be at the centre of a major development of up to 2,750 homes and a business park, as well as sports facilities. Planing permission was granted by Horsham District Council in May 2017.

The trust announced yesterday that it had appointed Georgette Ayling as the school’s first head teacher.
