Councillor Tom Hollis, cabinet member for community and health, added: “The Council is committed to providing high quality sports and leisure facilities across the district.
“Selston Leisure Centre will continue to offer leisure facilities to the community, and this is a great opportunity to empower the High School to take on the running of the on campus sports facilities.”
It is expected that the provisions on offer at the leisure centre will remain the same, including memberships.
