Higher Blackley Education Village

A brand new education village has been constructed in Higher Blackley, including a state of the art learning resource centre containing a library and IT facilities with specialist facilities including Science, Humanities and English.

The intention is that the project will be occupied in stages, with Our Lady's RC High School and North Ridge SEN occupying the building by January 2009, followed by Meade Hill ESBD in July 2009.[2]
