Site search for new Boroughmuir

Catchment area includes part of ward

Edinburgh council has bid for the Lloyds TSB site in Fountainbridge which had a closing date for offers last Wednesday.  If successful it will be considering the site for a new Boroughmuir Secondary School.

The current Boroughmuir building is in need of replacement or refurbishment and Education staff have had difficulty in identifying a new site.  Because of the constrained nature of the present site in Viewforth it is considered difficult to identify locations for education to continue during a rebuild on site.
