The business case for the Newcastle Education Campus is moving forward, now seeking approval to proceed from the NSW Treasury.
The State Government says the project will be located on the main Newcastle High School site, with masterplanning for the site already completed.
It'll include upgrades to the existing high school and expanded facilities suitable for shared use with the community.
Space has been allocated for a new primary school in the future, subject to enrolment demand.
The preferred option in the business case includes new flexible learning spaces to support future student enrolment growth, a new hall and library, new science laboratories, kitchens, canteen and student facilities and new support class facilities.
