The education minister says he’ll continue to plan for a new swimming pool at Castle Rushen High School, despite proposals for a similar facility at King William’s College.

 

A private group has applied for approval in principle to build a commercial sports centre at the public school, including a four-lane, 50-metre pool.

 

On Wednesday (13 Nov) those behind the project will appear at a public meeting, due to be held at Castletown Civc Centre from 7pm.
