PARALYMPIC champion Richard Whitehead will officially open a city secondary school's new building today.
Farnborough School, in Clifton, has undergone a £17 million reconstruction.
It is the final city school to benefit from the now-defunct Building Schools for the Future programme.
As well as new classrooms, there will be a multi-use games area, sports pitches and adult education facilities.
Executive head teacher Phil Crompton said: "This event signals a real statement of intent.
"Education matters. It can be a gateway to success and this wonderful new building will make an enormous impact upon the lives of the people of Clifton and the surrounding area.
"It's hard to believe how quickly the site was transformed – and now we must make sure it's put to good use."
