New Primary School

June 2016 - We are happy to announce that Planning Permission was received last week for a new Primary School at Sherford, Plymouth. This forms part of the infrastructure for Phase 1 of the overall development. CMYK’s role was to head up the Town Planning aspect of the application, negotiating with the Local Authority, Development Consortium and other stake holders.

Set in the heart of the Sherford New Town community, 420 primary places will be available to children between the ages of 2-11, and will be the first of three planned primary schools to be constructed as a part of the overall development.

It's a girl!

Milton Keynes WEA has outline planning permission to provide approximately 4330 new residential units together with a range of employment uses, indoor sports, community facilities, three primary schools and a secondary school to name but a few.

The future..............

November 2015 - During the long summer holidays, our Planning Director tasked his two young boys with surveying the family home for a possible extension later in the year.  As you can see, these two budding surveyors took their responsibilities very seriously and are well set for bright futures as Town Planners.
