Luke Hollingworth, who heads up the school said in documents submitted to planners: “Our intention is to fill the majority of our places from local authority sources, principally Lincolnshire.”

The school would operate in school term times Monday to Friday 9.30am to 3pm.

Pupils would receive funded transport to and from school, dropped off in front of the building or in Eastgate car park.

Mr Hollingworth said the majority of the school week will be spent off site, leaving no more than five to 10 pupils on site at a time.
