FIRE-HIT Cressex Community School remains shut today - as councillors look set to a plan to rebuild it.

Pupils are staying at home for a second day today after the English block was burned down at 2am on Sunday morning.

Yet members of will be asked to approve a long-discussed plan to rebuild it later today.

The £31m plan will replace the Holmers Lane, High Wycombe school by knocking down the 18 separate buildings on the present site.

There will be new access from Holmers Farm Way and a new turning circle at the current entrance off Cressex Road.

Planning officers recommend councillors approve the plan. Check www.bucksfreepress.co.uk for the decision later today.
