Have your say on new SEND school places in Lancashire

The council is planning several building projects to create more special school places across Lancashire. This is to help meet current and future need.

We are starting formal consultations on five new SEND projects. What people tell us during these consultations will help inform our plans for each project.

These projects are:

• Expansion of Mayfield School, Chorley
• Expansion of Pear Tree School, Kirkham
• Expansion of White Ash School, Hyndburn
• Accommodation for Post 19 provision on the site of Sir Tom Finney High School, Preston
• A new social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) school in Hyndburn

You can take part by completing an online survey to share your views on each proposal. The surveys are open from 11 May to 26 June 2026.
