2588 - UPGRADE FOR CALLAGHAN COLLEGE, WALLSEND

Hornery, Sonia to the Minister for Skills and Tertiary Education representing the Minister for Education and Early Childhood Learning

Are there any plans for a major upgrade of the Callaghan College, Wallsend, considering the school is at 100 per cent capacity and 3,000 new blocks of land are being released in the school catchment area?

 

Answer -

The Department of Education is not currently planning to upgrade Callaghan College, Wallsend campus.

The Department monitors population and development trends to enable effective planning to meet enrolment needs in public schools across New South Wales. Strategic schools planning is underway in response to the urban development at Edgeworth, Fletcher and Minmi and the associated increase in enrolment demand at schools in the Wallsend electorate and surrounding area.
