Points to note
 This is a development for SFX on its own – school will
continue as Catholic institution with boys provision
(11-16) and mixed sixth form as now. School will
continue as an Academy under trusteeship of De la
Mennais Brothers.
 It will not involve any amalgamation with another
school and there will be no change to pupil intake
arrangements.
 Sixth form arrangements in terms of student access to
courses at 6th forms in other schools will continue just
as now.
What happens next?
 Leadership Team and governors are working closely with
the council, construction company and the design team.
Staff and student involvement in design process
 Planning arrangements being dealt with by LCC & Kier –
public consultation meeting later in January organised by
LCC & Kier
 Logistical arrangements being planned so that pupil
education is not disrupted (we are experienced in this
given developments which have taken place in the past)
 We will keep you informed of developments via website
and newsletters
Finally
 This represents a huge opportunity for the College and
its pupils (present and future)
 We are being able to maintain our identity, preserve
the best of the “old school” and have brand new
facilities where needed
 We are extremely grateful to the Mayor and LCC for
their hard work in putting the Liverpool Schools
Investment Programme into place and are very
appreciative of our inclusion within the programme
