 L4, L7, and L8 are small rooms used for speaking practice and L3 and L13 are computer suites.Owing to such a long time in sub-standard accommodation in Music and Physical Education (as mentioned by the OFSTED report of 2001), a bid was made to Southend Borough Council for a grant to be awarded for a new Sports Hall and Music Centre (following the construction of a top quality facility at St Bernard's High School for Girls).Permission was granted and the sum of £2.25 million was given to the school for the construction of this new facility.
