That said, It seems pretty obvious that as Burnley's population and the worlds technology grows, were gonna need bigger and better schools to give our kids the best possible start we can. I think a better idea would be a compromise, re-design and rebuild Townley High on it's existing site utilising the best aspects of the current school and replacing the worst, then build an annex on the playing fields, smaller than the planned super school.
