CONSULTATION ends this week for a new multi-million pound school for Ysgol Dewi Sant.
People are urged to give their views on a proposed £9.1million build in Llanerch before the deadline of Wednesday, October 11.
Hundreds of people have already taken part in the consultation, however education chiefs are encouraging as many as possible to participate.
The plans are to replace the current Ysgol Dewi Sant site and school buildings which do not meet Carmarthenshire’s standards.
Subject to planning being approved for the new Ysgol Dewi Sant, design work would begin on the redevelopment of Ysgol Penygaer which would inherit the existing Dewi Sant site, once they have occupied the new facility.
People can take part in the consultation online at i-Local or visit Llanelli Library where hard copies are available.
The major investment would be part of Carmarthenshire County Council’s Modernising Education Programme (MEP),jointly funded by the council and the Welsh Government, through its 21st Century Schools initiative.
The council’s executive board member for education and children’s services, Cllr Glynog Davies said: “Time is running out for people to tell us what they think of the plans for this investment in Ysgol Dewi Sant, and Ysgol Penygaer.
“We have had a really good response to the consultation, which will help us when reaching a decision on the proposals.
“However, it’s not too late to have your say if you haven’t already done so, we welcome all feedback.”
