A new school for Lewisham
At a meeting of the Mayor and Cabinet on 8 November 2006 the Mayor decided to consult on a proposal that the new secondary school should be moved from the Ladywell Leisure Centre site to a new proposed site at Lewisham Bridge Primary School. He also agreed that we should consult on the new school becoming an ‘all-through’ school catering for 3 to 16 year olds.
