The application is for resurfacing of its outdoor sports/play area with artificial grass and tarmac and installation of replacement mesh fencing and gates to its perimeter.

Plans will include specification on new fencing, including dimensions and colour and the new flooring which includes the artificial grass and tarmac.

Planning papers show that the actual fencing would be coloured green.

Gates would be installed to provide access onto the sports facility and would match the fencing in the same shade of green.

As of early 2026, Revoe Learning Academy has approximately 440 pupils on roll and caters to children aged 2 to 11. It has a total capacity for 466 pupils.

The application was submitted to planners on April 7.
