Education minister says residents shouldn't expect to see new facility built too soon
The education minister says residents shouldn't expect to see a new school built on the derelict Park Road site immediately.
The land in central Douglas has been left unused since 2012, only occasionally being used as a car auction lot.
Meanwhile, plans for a new two-form entry primary school on the plot will be laid before Tynwald this month.
It's been long-awaited, but Education Minister Daphne Caine told Manx Radio's John Moss that the project won't be rushed:
Sailings cancelled due to predicted gales
Have your say on the future of the Island's plantations
Warning for 'disorderly' parents attending schools
Yellow weather warning for gale force winds
New board members sought for abattoir
