The new primary school has been designed for 320 pupils, together with an early years facility with 30 spaces.
The project will see the refurbishment of the original 1881 school building, the demolition of the later 1950's extensions and the construction of the new primary school building in their place which will include classroom accommodation, a library, dining facilities and a sports hall.
Councillor David Kinniburgh said: "This is the next stage in the planning application process and will give members of the public an opportunity to have their say on the proposals and comment on the plans."
