Kings Road Primary School Unveils Plans for New Building in Chelmsford

30/11/2025 About 1 minute Share article:
Chelmsford — Kings Road Primary School has announced ambitious plans to expand its facilities with a new purpose-built structure designed to enhance learning spaces and accommodate the school’s growing pupil population. The development, proposed for the school’s existing site on Kings Road, will include a modern building, upgraded fencing, secure gates, and new hardstanding areas to improve access and outdoor functionality.

According to early details released by the school, the new building will provide additional classrooms, improved staff areas, and flexible learning spaces tailored to contemporary educational needs. School leaders say the project reflects a long-term strategy to support both current and future pupils.

The plans also outline enhanced site security, with new fencing and entry systems intended to create a safer and more efficient environment for children, parents, and staff. Hardstanding areas will be added or reconfigured to improve movement around the school, particularly during busy drop-off and pick-up periods.

Local residents are expected to be consulted as the planning process moves forward. The school has expressed its commitment to working with the community to minimise disruption during construction and ensure the project aligns with neighbourhood expectations.

If approved, the development is anticipated to bring significant benefits by providing high-quality, modern facilities that will serve families in Chelmsford for years to come.
