W.H. Shaw Pallet Works site in Diggle
Plans for the proposed new Saddleworth School on the site of the former WH Shaw Pallet site works in Diggle have been revealed – with the public asked to give their views during a four week public consultation period.
The construction company, Interserve Construction Ltd, have been appointed to design and build the new school and will be hosting a series of public exhibitions which the public can attend, view the proposals, discuss them with members of the project team and provide their written feedback.
The details of the exhibitions are as follows:

Oldham Council will also be at these events presenting a series of options under consideration for local highway upgrade works that are to facilitate the operation of the new school.
Alongside these exhibitions, a dedicated website (www.newsaddleworthschool.co.uk) has been established which provides the same information as will be available at the exhibitions. An online feedback facility is also available.
All feedback received will be reviewed and, where the project team feel that amendments could and should be made to respond to comments received, such changes will be incorporated into the design.
