TVDSB Requesting Funds to Build New Schools in Ingersoll and London

Wednesday, 23 February 2022 at 09:06

The TVDSB is requesting funding from the Ministry of Education in order to build three new schools; two in London and one in Ingersoll.

TVDSB - The Thames Valley District School Board is looking to build three new schools in the near future.

The school board is requesting funding from the Ministry of Education’s 2022-23 Capital Priorities Grant program in order new schools in Ingersoll, west London and northeast London. 

It's also requesting funds in order to build new additions to Wilberforce Public School in Lucan and Summerside Public School in London.

Associate Director of Education Jeff Pratt says the TVDSB student population is growing and these projects will help address that.

“Thames Valley is experiencing significant enrolment growth, and we expect this trend to continue in the coming years as more families move into our district. We want to relieve enrolment pressure on some of our most populated schools and ensure that every student is learning in the best education setting the school board can provide.” 

Thames Valley trustees discuss the new schools and additions during last night's board meeting. You can watch the meeting online here.
