New plans to demolish parts of the school to make way for a newly built state-of-the art suite of laboratories and classrooms were unveiled at a meeting for parents on 3 September last year. The plans had already been shown to residents of nearby properties during the summer. The Leicester City Planning Department considered the plans, taking account of professional advice and the views of nearby residents and parents of girls at the school, and on 18 March gave approval for the scheme to go ahead. The first buildings will enhance the facilities of the school, especially in Science and ICT. There will not be an increase in the number of pupils using the site as this is limited by an agreement which forms part of a previous planning permission between the City Council and the Governors.
