The Island's education minister says two schools sharing one site would improve both.
St Thomas' Church of England Primary School is to move to the same site as Scoill Vallajeelt, sharing the same building rather than merging.
Graham Gregeen MHK says St Thomas' current site is not fit for purpose.
He explains why the move was necessary:
Former Motor Museum goes on the market
No Onchan Park plan, say commissioners
Laxey campsite to get campervan improvements
Local authority: don't suffer in silence at Xmas
Government reminder over salt bins
Weather warning in place for high tides
White Boys touring Island today
