QEII to get new £10 million science block

Plans on show in school's foyer this week

Plans for a £10 million state-of-the-art science and technology block at QEII High School in Peel will go on display this week.

Parents, pupils and staff will be able to give feedback on the proposals, from tomorrow until Friday.

The plans will be on show in the school's foyer, as government looks to develop what it calls a "sustainable, low carbon building."

Facing Douglas Road, over two floors, it'll include science labs, workshops and classrooms, as well as a large flexible space - government says.

The scheme would also see the refurbishment and repurposing of existing facilities for maths, computer science, drama and art, plus an extended bus lay-by and parking across the front of the school.

The plans will also be available to view on the gov.im website.
