A planning application has been made for a Mathnasium learning centre at 9-11 West Street, Reigate.
Permission is being sought to allow the ground floor to be used as a Class F1(a) education centre, together with signage and other works.
Mathnasium has 39 sites in the UK, which offer tailored learning to children aged 4-16 in staggered 1-hour sessions.
Footfall at the Reigate site is expected to be “very comparable” to a shop or restaurant, which would already be allowed to operate there, the application papers (Opens in a new window) say.
No more than 4-5 children would be expected to arrive in any 15 minute period.
Parents are asked to be off-site during the 1-hour session, something that’s proved beneficial to business such as coffee shops near other Mathnasium locations, the application says.
The vacant site was previously a cafe and sportswear shop, and before that Geek Retreat, and before that a bathroom shop.
