Plans for Proposed New Building
FUNDING AGREED!
We hope you will have seen in the local press the news that the Secretary of State has formally approved the capital spending budget of £22.5 million so that we can build a brand new school to replace the existing buildings.  We are delighted that the Secretary of State has granted the full funding required for the project and that it will continue in line with the original schedule.  In his letter Michael Gove emphasised his support and said "I have asked my officials to ensure that every possible obstacle is cleared from your path so we can proceed smoothly".
We are pleased for the students, staff and the local community that this much needed project is going ahead in order to continue to improve the education we offer.  The Twickenham Academy website will soon be up and running so please log on to keep up to date with developments. 
The project management team will be appointed on 27 August and we will bring you more information as soon as we have it.
