A PIONEERING scheme where schools provide services to the community is to be spread across Bromley.
The Priory School, Tintagel Road, Orpington, became the borough's first extended school in January.
Extended schools work with partners in the community, such as the police.
They aim to provide services including childcare, education, sports, health and social care outside normal school hours.
From next month, schools offering services will include those in the wards of Crystal Palace, Penge and Cator, West Wickham and Chislehurst.
Bromley Council's executive councillor for children and young people Councillor Graham Arthur said: "We are moving forward with our plans to transform services for young people in our communities.
"We are committed to ensuring all children and young people in this borough have the opportunities to thrive."
