Plans have been submitted for a new £3.6m primary school in Hucknall which is being built to cope with demand when 900 new homes are built in the area.
The local democracy reporting service says the school will have places for up to 210 pupils and is expected to be open by September next year.
It's being built on the former Rolls-Royce site off Watnall Road.
Chairman of the county council's children and young people's committee, Councillor Philip Owen, had previously said the new free school was "essential" as five existing schools in Hucknall had already created an extra 420 places for pupils following a rise in new houses in the last five years.

The location of BBC Radio Nottingham's giant robin as part of the Hoodwinked art trail has been revealed.
More than 30 brightly-decorated robins have been made for the trail which launches in July with each bird sponsored by a local organisation.
And the BBC's, which features names of famous people from the city, will be sat on Weekday Cross near the Nottingham Contemporary.
Nigel Hawkins, head of culture at Nottingham City Council, said they had seen from similar trails in Bristol and Birmingham that there is a demand for them and they hope it will encourage tourism to Nottingham over the summer.
He added: "People will see them decorated in a variety of different designs and materials and it will give people a fun trail to find where they are in the city through the apps."
Once the display ends in September the birds will be auctioned off to raise money for the Nottinghamshire Hospice.

Ranjit Banwait has said he is challenging the election result in Boulton that saw him lose his seat in Derby to UKIP's Paul Bettany.
In response UKIP’s leader in Derby, Alan Graves, has said: "I'm surprised that the Labour party are prepared to be seen as a party that wants to pervert democracy. It smacks of desperation. They should respect the people that voted.”

The former leader of Derby City Council is challenging the local election result in Boulton.
Earlier this month Labour's Ranjit Banwait lost his seat to UKIP's Paul Bettany.
I understand if his petition is successful, he won't stand for the seat again and Labour would select another candidate.
UKIP aren't commenting at this stage.
Quote MessageWhere the Labour Party and its candidates don’t believe other parties have campaigned within the limits of the law and with the utmost integrity we will support our candidates in challenging it.”

A Nottingham Forest fan has started his 24-day journey cycling to Russia in time for England's first game in the World Cup.
Jamie Marriott (left) set off on his 2,400 mile bike ride from Portsmouth early this morning with friend Mitch Jones (right). They hope to get to Volgograd in time for England's match against Tunisia on 18 June.
He told BBC Radio Nottingham this morning he hasn't done any training for the "gruelling" journey and they hadn't really thought much about how they were going to do it or where they were going to sleep.
The pair are raising money for the Bobby Moore Fund for Cancer Research UK in memory of Mitch's former football coach who died of cancer earlier this year.

A Derbyshire folk singer who sang songs questioning the Holocaust and performed for far-right groups has been convicted of uploading grossly offensive material online.
Alison Chabloz, 54, from Charlesworth, near Glossop, posted the videos on Youtube in which she mocked Holocaust survivors figures Anne Frank and Elie Wiesel.
She sang about the murder of six million Jews during World War II being "just a bunch of lies" and called the Auschwitz death camp a "theme park", but said her music was "satire" and Jewish people found her songs funny.
However, prosecutors argued they were "criminally offensive".
Today at Westminster Magistrates' Court she was convicted of two counts of sending by a public communications network an offensive, indecent or menacing message or material in relation to two of the three songs.
District Judge John Zani said the offences were "serious" and he will sentence her this afternoon.

A man who spent almost eight months on remand at Nottingham Prison, before his case was dropped shortly before trial, has described his time in the jail as "a living nightmare".
Robert Adlington said drug use in the prison was "rife" especially the drug mamba. He claims to have witnessed seeing one user bite the top off a razor and start cutting his arms.
Despite being a prison "newbie" and never having been in trouble with the law before Robert said no one in authority at the prison even asked him if he was alright.
The government insists it is taking action to improve safety at Nottingham Prison after the chief inspector said the death rate was "tragic and appalling".
The case against Mr Adlington was dropped when new evidence came to light, prompting Derbyshire Police to refer itself to the independent regional review team.
Det Ch Supt Kem Mehmet said: “Once the review is complete, we will ensure that any lessons are learned. We would welcome the opportunity to discuss the situation with Mr Adlington directly should he wish to do so.”
