The school, though, will initially open in temporary accommodation in a classroom at the Hampton College Primary site and will then move to its permanent building in September 2020 on the new development to the east of the A15, near Teardrop Lake.
Paston Reserve Primary School, which has also been previously approved, will also open in 2022 with funding secure.
