The department will work with Education officials to consider whether the site could be reconfigured to provide an extension to the school, said Deputy Eddie Noel in response to a written States question from Deputy Jeremy Maçon.
In the formal response, Deputy Noel said: ‘The funding requirements to redevelop the former police and current fire station site to relocate the fire service are being considered as part of the States of Jersey Long-Term Capital Programme.
‘Funding for a feasibility study will be made available to support this process. As part of this feasibility work, the department will work with officers of the Education Department, and others, to consider whether the site of the current fire and former police station could be reconfigured to provide an extension to Rouge Bouillon Primary School as part of any future scheme.’
In addition, Deputy Noel confirmed that no discussions had taken place with regard to an extension of Plat Douet School into the nearby vacant Samuel Le Riche House.
