Decision

The applications details are no longer available to Lincolnshire County Council (LCC). The Department for Education (DfE) will still hold this information as they were submitted through an online form. Applications were made for five primary schools in Lincolnshire following detailed surveys identifies that the applicable school mobiles were considered to be beyond economical repair due to the age and condition of them and the mobile classrooms were required to meet capacity at the schools for education purposes. The following schools were: Baston CE primary school, Fleet Wood lane primary school, Saxilby CE primary school, Leasingham St Andrew's CE primary school and South Hykeham Community primary school. The proposals were to replace the mobile classrooms with permanent new build classrooms to ensure a long-term solution is secured. These have since been considered through the Council’s school mobile replacement programme.
