South Ribble Council has approved at least eight plans in the past seven days, many with conditions attached.
The projects involve residential properties, as well as St Patrick's School in Higher Walton Road, Higher Walton.
The school has been given permission for an extension and internal alterations to provide more toilets and storage.
Demolish and restoration work has also been permitted at The Old School House in Church Brow, Walton-le-Dale.
It includes bulldozing the old squash court, creating a new terrace access and transforming the parish rooms into a three-bedroom house and office.
Below are more details of some of the applications that have been approved this week.
