In recent years, the school underwent a full new build, however, due to completion issues, the new building is not fit for purpose and is due to be rebuilt over the coming years.

The kitchen itself is fully equipped with all necessary facilities in order to deliver a full secondary food offer. The contract covers the scope for the provision of all catering services within the School, which also includes all hospitality and free issue requirements. The School also acts as a production kitchen for two Primary Schools within the local area; Enmore C of E Primary School and St Josephs RC Primary School. It is anticipated that this service will continue into this new contract. The duration of the contract being offered is for an initial three-year period commencing on 01 January 2025, with the potential to extend for a further three 12-month periods.
