WEYDON School has announced a multi-million pound expansion to combat the growing demand for secondary school places in Farnham.

Headteacher John Winter said his school is to be given between £8m and £11m to expand its yearly intake by 22 per cent.

Potentially, it means that from September 2015 Weydon will welcome 308 new pupils through its gates each year compared to the current 252, and by 2020 it will have an additional 280 pupils studying across all year groups.
