Frequently asked questions

How do I find planning applications for a new school or care home near me?
On Plota, filter by 'Community & Public Buildings' or visit your council page. Major school, care home and hospital applications also typically have wider notification radii and longer consultation periods than ordinary planning applications.
Are state-funded schools subject to normal planning rules?
Yes. Some additional permitted development rights apply for temporary classrooms and small extensions to existing schools, but new schools, major rebuilds or significant extensions all require full planning permission.
Can I get email alerts for community & public buildings planning applications anywhere in Scotland?
Yes. Click the "Set up alerts" button on this page and you'll get a daily (or weekly) email listing every new community & public buildings application submitted anywhere in Scotland. No need to pick a postcode or draw a map — pick the category once, choose your frequency, and we'll do the rest.
