The construction of the new St Ninian's Lower School at Bemahague in Onchan has moved a step closer, after Tynwald approved expenditure of up to £433,000 on the first stage of the project.
The new school would cost in the region of £33 million and would have room for 800 pupils.
Education Minister Anne Craine (pictured) hopes to bring the main scheme to Tynwald before the 2009 summer recess.
