New places created at Birmingham schools

New places created at Birmingham schools

More than 1,700 extra class places are to be created at eight Birmingham primary schools.

According to the Birmingham Mail, classrooms are to be built at eight schools, costing £11.5 million.

The additional places are expected to be available at the start of the new academic year in September.

Council chiefs have been forced to take action after birth rates increased by more than a fifth in seven years.

Local councillor Les Lawrence said the new classrooms will also provide a "huge boost" to construction workers in the area.

"We will do everything we can to ensure the building jobs created by this project are filled by local people," he told the news provider.

In other Birmingham education news, year six children at Knowle Primary School were celebrating this week after finishing in the top five of a national maths competition.

The school finished second in England and fifth in the UK.
