Brilliant news for the future of Banbury School and the community
The vision of a school for the 21st century will become a reality after it was announced by Oxfordshire County Council that, under the Building Schools for the Future programme, the government will invest approximately £60 million to refurbish or rebuild and enhance technology in four schools in the county. Banbury School has been named as one of these schools and is expected to receive approximately £17 million with the aim of raising educational achievement by providing world class learning facilities, inspiring young people to realise their potential and providing closer links with the community.
