en.Wedoany.com Reported - A primary school planned by Homes England within the Brookleigh development in Burgess Hill, West Sussex, has received approval from the local council, becoming the first primary school project directly developed by this government agency in the UK.

The school, named Brookleigh, is located east of Isaacs Lane and is expected to provide 420 student places. Additionally, the school will include a nursery for 52 children and a special support center with 16 places. The new school is planned as a two-form entry, meaning two classes per year group.

As the government's housing and regeneration agency, Homes England is acting as the master developer for the project, supported by local partners, agencies, and developer partners. Neil Miller, Development Director at Homes England, stated that this is the first time the agency has directly delivered such a facility for the Brookleigh community and surrounding areas. He emphasized that Brookleigh is designed to make residents' daily lives more convenient, with schools, shops, outdoor spaces, and community facilities all within a short travel distance, helping to reduce short road trips and thereby creating communities where people can stay active, feel connected, and access the amenities they need close to home.
