Education - Stourview C of E Primary Academy in 2024 (Image: Archive)To keep staff and pupils safe, schools were ordered not to use potentially unsafe buildings, and urged to rebuild with help from the government. The school, in Remercie Road, has now put forward plans to demolish the existing main block and rebuild its premises. Once the work is complete, the primary school will provide 105 spaces for four to 11 year olds. The existing Stourview Primary Academy was built during the 1970s in a mainly single-storey building.
