A number of schools in Kent are set to expand, including one on to land previously reserved for a graveyard, in an effort to meet growing demand for school places.
Medway Council’s cabinet has met to discuss how best to spend £25.5m of government money on expansion plans over the next two years.
A total of 14 expansion or relocation projects are planned using the funding from the government to help create 1,435 new school places by 2030.
