The county council said money from the authority and Section 106 developer contributions would be used to fund the school in Garendon Park, which it added would be the first of two primary schools in the 3,200-home housing development.It said Broadnook Primary School would be built using Section 106 developer contributions from Davidsons and Cora Homes to serve the housing development, which is currently being built.Councillor Charles Pugsley, cabinet member for children and families, said: “Our school organisation team worked brilliantly to ensure that we have the right number of school places on both developments to help our growing county.”It’s great that we’ve reached the stage now where we’re inviting academy trusts to express their interest in running these future schools, and I’m confident that we’ll see lots of interest and a competitive process, so children get the best possible education.”The council added it would invite academies to apply to run the proposed SEND school in Husbands Bosworth.It said it was carrying out engagement with residents with a view to submitting a planning application to Harborough District Council.
