We understand that any new development will mean that there is a need to consider the capacity of existing schools and whether a new school is needed.
More modest scale developments will be required to make financial contributions towards improving or extending existing school facilities through the Community Infrastructure Levy.
For some of the larger scale developments proposed in the Plan, policy requires the provision of a new school as part of development.
We work closely with West Sussex County Council, as the local education authority, to understand where new schools or upgrades to existing schools may be needed.
