Purpose

It is proposed to temporarily utilise the
vacant Abram Bryn Gates School to enable more children and young
people be admitted to Landgate School.
 
The additional site will enable the
School’s Leadership Team to move Key Stage 3 and 4 pupils
from the current site at Long Lane to the site at Lily Lane
Approximately 3 miles away.
 
This temporary solution will afford the
Council the time it requires to secure additional investment and
land to rebuild and permanently expand the school in line with the
capacity required to meet both the current and future special
educational needs of children and young people living in
Wigan.
