Schools consultations

Disposal or change of use of former school playing fields

Public Notice consultation

Following the relocation of Yarmouth CE Primary School to a new site the Isle of Wight Council is seeking to dispose of 0.65 hectares of land at the former Yarmouth CE Primary School site, Mill Road, Yarmouth, Isle of Wight PO41 0RA.

Why your views matter and how to comment

The Council does not believe that there are any viable alternative education uses for the former the Yarmouth CE Primary School land. Local Schools do not have a need for additional playing field provision. Before continuing with the disposal, the Council wishes to consult the local community.

Comments can be made via the following email address: SandLBusinessSupport@IOW.gov.uk, or in writing to Strategic Development Officer, County Hall, Newport Isle of Wight, PO30 1UD

Start of consultation: Friday 20 October 2023

End of consultation: midday Friday 1 December 2023

Please note that in accordance with the Local Government Act 1972 and the Freedom of Information Act 2000 your written comments will be available for any member of public to see on demand and an analysis of comments received will be forwarded to the Secretary of State as part of the Council’s application for consent to the proposal.
