The first phase of the project, if approved, will see the development of replacement facilities for the existing Peterhead Academy, Anna Ritchie, Dales Park and Meethill schools, all set within a community campus.

Alongside this, Aberdeenshire Council has committed to providing modern leisure, sport and community facilities on the existing Academy site.

This will be delivered as phase two of the project and will include a swimming pool, fitness suite, theatre and community spaces.

Leading the design are jmarchitects while Faithful+Gould are the project management consultants undertaking the day-to-day delivery of the project.
