It will house: three superb studios for teaching area; seven fully equipped technology workshops; new and extended drama studio space with lights and balckout and new music classrooms to promote creativity and originality. The new block will also include a sports hall meaning that Rutlish can offer an even more exciting range of activities. Other improvements extend out across the school; science laboratories will be completely refurbished; teaching rooms for mathematics and modern foreign languages will be fully renovated; English will be housed in a new teaching area.
