PLANS for a new state of the art £3.5million community education centre in Wickford have been unveiled.

The Collaborative Learning Centre, which will be based at Bromfords Secondary School, in Grange Avenue, will include space for music, art, technology and science.

Pupils from 11 primary schools, two secondary schools and one special school, as well as members of the community in Wickford, will have access to the new centre.

The eco-friendly building will be built using a timber frame and timber cladding, and will have green roofs.
