The current main builds weren’t built to host so many people and the design layout wasn’t purposely thought of and therefore a new purpose built school is desperately needed in order to overcome the challenges caused by the old and inadequate layout; an example of this is like the space in corridors and stairs is not built to cope with so many people and also the services such as drainage, electrics are all in desperate need of replacement, but this will cost more than having it done as part of a new school build.

The current main school buildings are old (built in 1950s), in need of a lot of maintenance, which is taking a lot of time from site staff and also money spent on repairs. Arden is highly achieving school, this is achieved by the hard work of its pupils and staff and surely by having a new school built with new facilities, this will make the school achieve even higher results and improve students’ outcome even further. Also by having a new school it will also benefit the community with its new facilities for the surrounding community such as library, swimming pool etc. I full y support this project and I hope it will materialise.
