It was noted that no objections had been received as a result of the consultation and the application was in line with the relevant policies of the Eastleigh Borough Council Local Plan (2022).
One deputation was received from Andrew Parker, Principal Architect, on behalf of the Applicant, in favour of the recommendation to the committee, noting that the application would help to meet the demand for Special School places in Hampshire.
