Building begins on the new Wokingham Addington Special School

A Wokingham ceremony to mark the start of work on the new £13.5 million Addington Special School will be held on Monday (October 29) when executive member for children services Cllr Frank Browne will join pupils, teachers and governors to watch at first hand the construction get under way of their new school.

Located on a site within the Bulmershe School campus, the new Addington Special School facilities will help the school to better meet the needs of its pupils - children with severe learning difficulties and children with physical disabilities.

The new Wokingham school facilities which will now be built in a single construction project rather than in two separate phases as originally envisaged, will include classrooms, specialist science, art, music, ICT and drama facilities, a gymnasium, hall and hydrotherapy pool, as well sensory suites, soft play area, physiotherapy, speech and language and medical areas.
