A new, purpose-built primary Alternative Provision (AP) in Kidderminster has been completed and will open its doors to students next week.
Comprising of eight classrooms, associated hall and resource spaces, Unity Academy is an AP primary school, educating young people in the Worcestershire County away from their mainstream school environment, which is run by the Rivers Church of England Academy Trust.
The Trust and Council required a specialist resource to accommodate 60 primary school students from schools across the local community, who are in need of additional provisions and will be supported by approximately 25 members of staff.
The completed site also includes a commercial spec kitchen with a MUGA area, external pitch area, car park with EV charging bays and photovoltaic panels on the roof. Wildflowers have also been planted around the school to improve biodiversity as well as bat and bird boxes and two bug hotels.
