Forest School will become Guernsey s new base for primary school children with additional needs.
Currently, the facilities at Amherst cannot cater for the increasing number of children needing support from the Communication, Interaction and Autism Service (CIAS).
The government says more classroom space is needed, and that the temporary buildings at Amhurst are in need of urgent repairs .
Guernsey s Head of Education Inclusion Services has welcomed the move.
