Brixton Schools Announce August Moves, New Programs Launch

Corpus Christi Catholic School in Brixton will move its 200 students on August 18 at the start of the new school year while roof repairs address reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete.

Relocation and repair timeline

The August 18 date gives families a fixed point for planning transport and daily routines. The temporary shift keeps classes running without interruption while the roof work proceeds at the existing site. No further dates for the return of students have been announced.

New academy and campus redevelopment

Trinity Academy opened on the Brixton Hill site of the former Lambeth College with 17 pupils. The Brixton Hill campus of Lambeth College is scheduled for demolition and replacement by a 2-5 storey building that will be shared by Trinity Academy and a new tech college. Decisions on the final layout, access arrangements and move-in schedule remain ahead for the two institutions.

Additional programmes and access points

Brixton Finishing School has added a virtual learning course that runs alongside its physical school and offers free programmes for 18-25 year olds entering creative industries. A Community Access Point with 20 computers and internet access has opened at Brixton Hill Primary and Infant School for students and residents. These additions expand options without requiring new physical space at this stage.

Parents and providers now face choices on transport for the August 18 move, coordination between Trinity Academy and the future tech college on the redeveloped Brixton Hill site, and uptake of the new virtual programmes and computer access point. Updates on these steps will determine how the changes affect daily attendance and course enrolment in the coming months.
