THE opening of a new primary school building has been delayed after the discovery of subsidence at the site.
The Heights Primary School was due to move into its new home at Mapledurham Playing Fields, off Upper Woodcote Road, Caversham, on June 8 during the final weeks of the summer term.
However, the Department for Education has delayed the opening until the new academic year in September.
The decision was taken following the discovery of subsidence in the car park and early years play area, which only came to light when portable cabins used by the construction workers were removed.

Injured rider back in the saddle );

A WOMAN who narrowly survived a horse riding accident is back in the saddle and planning a return to eventing in 2021.
Anna Tomson was crushed beneath her mare Berry when the pair were out hacking through College Wood, off Deadman’s Lane, near Goring Heath, in May.
The animal was startled by some off-road motorcyclists and fell on top of her, inflicting severe internal injuries.
Miss Tomson was in a coma in hospital for four weeks, during which she underwent several operations. She required extensive physiotherapy after coming round.
She rode again for the first time in October and has since completed some small jumps on Berry and now intends to follow a more structured training programme.
