This is approximately 1,200 school places more than the combined junior and senior campuses currently provide. The extra places are expected to be taken up by current and future residents of the Green Square area.
Although the redevelopment of the junior campus will not be completed until 2022, the senior school is required to vacate its campus during 2017. From 2018, the current senior campus on Mitchell Road will house what is currently the Cleveland Street Intensive English School, a school for newly arrived Australians and long-term visitors of senior school age. The current Cleveland Street Intensive English School will become the site for a new 1,500-student inner-city high school, with development to start during 2018 and finish by 2020.
