A former school building in Wolverhampton will be demolished after planners gave the scheme the go-ahead.

The city council has approved the plans for the former Penn Fields Special School in Birches Barn Road.

The building is surplus to requirements after the school moved to a £45 million campus in Boundary Way, which it shares with Highfields School.

Planning officer Jenny Davies granted permission for the demolition, subject to the work being carried out within the next three years, otherwise a fresh application would be required.
