New School Building – Consultation

Welcome to the consultation webpage showcasing the redevelopment proposals for Greenbank High School.

Introduction

The redevelopment proposals for Greenbank High School form part of the Department for Education’s (DfE) national School Rebuilding Programme. BAM Construction have been appointed by the DfE as the building contractor to deliver the project.

BAM Construction, in partnership with the DfE and Greenbank High School, are pleased to share the latest designs and are consulting the community on the proposals.

The Proposals

The DfE’s School Rebuilding Programme is focused on carrying out school rebuilding and refurbishment projects prioritised according to existing condition needs. The project is looking to take forward plans to redevelop the existing school site to provide a new sustainable school building and supporting facilities.

A comprehensive redevelopment of the school site is planned, incorporating the replacement of all the existing buildings with a new single school building. The development would be phased to allow for the school to remain open using the majority of the existing buildings, while the new school building is being constructed. Community use sporting facilities will also remain available throughout the construction period.

Access to the school for pupils, staff and visitors would be unchanged, with vehicle and pedestrian access remaining from Hastings Road, as well as retained pedestrian and cycle access from Waterloo Road. The school will retain its existing pupil capacity, operating as a seven-form entry school.

It is intended that a planning application for the redevelopment proposals will be submitted to Sefton Council following the consultation period in March/April of this year. Subject to receiving planning permission, it is intended that on-site work would start in late 2026. The new school building is planned to be available for use by autumn 2028 with the project completing in autumn 2029, after the final phase of external works.
