A new school on Hyde Road
Consultation now closed
We are pleased to invite you to comment on the design for Co-op Academy Belle Vue – a new secondary school on Hyde Road we propose to locate on the former Showcase Cinema site. This consultation is prior to any planning application being submitted to the Council, as such the design image is a mockup and may change based on consultation feedback

Proposal
Co-op Academies Trust has 26 schools across the North of England and has a strong history in Manchester for providing high-quality education, such as Co-op Academy Manchester, which has a strong reputation in the community. Co-op Academy Belle Vue will be sponsored by the Co-op and will accommodate 1,200 students between the ages of 11 and 16 years.
This new school will also focus honouring the heritage of the Belle Vue community and offering a range of community facilities to ensure that the school benefits not just the students but the wider community as well.

This is a 3D design image to give you an idea of what the school may look like (when viewed from Hyde Road) and is not the final product.
Have your say
We want to hear from the Belle Vue community and surrounding areas about the proposals. So that we can work closely with local families, communities and services to enhance what is available within the area.
Parents, carers, residents and local community groups are invited to respond online. You can take part in our consultation from the 7 December to 18 December 2020.
