Machynlleth Library and Ysgol Bro Hyddgen New Building Development
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LinkedinEmail this link
Consultation has concluded
Powys County Council has been working on plans to build a new school for Ysgol Bro Hyddgen since 2017, but the project faced an unforeseen delay due to the collapse of the main contractor, Dawnus Construction Ltd.
A new Strategic Outline Case/Outline Business Case was prepared by the council and approved by Welsh Government in January 2023 for a new 540-place all-age school at Ysgol Bro Hyddgen’s secondary school site to replace the current primary and secondary school buildings.
When built, the replacement building will incorporate early years facilities, areas for primary, secondary and post-16 education, a community room, an additional learning needs centre, wellbeing areas as well as external areas and a 3G pitch.
The design could also include a space for a public library if required. This would be subject to the outcome of this public engagement.
Please give your views by Tuesday 28th February 2023. Thank you.
Powys County Council will now be tendering for a contractor to come on board to complete the designs, with the new school planned to be open by 2026.
If you have any queries about this exercise, you can contact the Transforming Education Team by e-mailing transforming.education@powys.gov.uk or phoning 01938 551253.
