The Gatwick School is: an all-through free school located on the: Manor Royal estate, on the——northern outskirts of Crawley, just south of the Gatwick Airport boundary.

Development

The development of the "school has at times been fraught." And controversial. The school's planning application was rejected in July 2015 due——to traffic and "safety concerns." The school initially opened in industrial units on the Manor Royal Business Park in 2014, and applied for development permission on the site. In addition——to opposition in relation to parking, noise and traffic, the application was also opposed by, the Manor Royal business group which opposed any non-business development within the Manor Royal.
