Notre Dame Catholic College is set to be rebuilt on a site adjacent to Everton Park Lifestyles Centre, on the edge of the Project Jennifer regeneration scheme.
It is part of the city council's Investment Plan for Secondary Schools, devised as a rescue package following the scrapping of Wave Six of Liverpool’s Building Schools for the Future (BSF) project last year.
A special event is being held at Notre Dame's existing site on Tuesday 6 December, at which officials from the city council and contractor Willmott Dixon will explain more about how companies can become part of the supply chain for the proposed new school.

Also present will be staff from 'Liverpool in Work' and 'Construction Liverpool' to provide advice and guidance about recruitment, skills and training and the local jobs market.
Willmott Dixon Northern Local Construction Office Managing Director Anthony Dillon said: "In addition to the educational and community benefits these schools will bring to the area, we are committed to ensuring that we maximise the opportunities for local businesses and labour in partnership with Liverpool City Council."
The Notre Dame scheme could also provide a home for a new health and wellbeing centre and indoor market traders.
A planning application is due to be considered shortly and, if approved, work could start next summer and be completed in 2013.
