Lydgate Junior school: no room for expansion

Crosspool’s growing population has resulted in Sheffield city council proposing to permanently expand Hallam Primary School from 60 places to 90 places per year.

The proposal would make the extra places available in all reception intakes at Hallam Primary from September 2015 onwards. The extra capacity is required as the sites of the two Lydgate schools are constrained and those schools are already larger than average.

Residents have until Sunday 8 December to have their say on the proposals at this stage. You can read more about them online and then comment using the following contact details:
