Plans to spend more than £19m on Nuneaton town centre have been approved by Warwickshire County Council.
The money, from the Capital Investment Fund, will pay for a new library, cafe and business centre.
The development will be on Church Street, on the site where the current Wilkos, Powell House and the Royal Mail are based.
A programme for primary pupils in Warwickshire teaching about relationships is to be reviewed, said the county council, following claims some of it is inappropriate for younger pupils.
Speaking in Parliament last week Rugby MP Mark Pawsey said the All About Me programme "goes well beyond statutory guidance" from the Department for Education.
The Conservative MP said he had been contacted by "concerned parents" who believe that some of the material is not appropriate.
"I understand that Warwickshire County Council is urgently reviewing this programme, " he said in a statement.
"I hope that the outcome of that will be to reassure parents that what is being taught to their children is suitable for their age.”
Warwickshire County Council said: "These resources are fully researched, evidence based and in line with the department for education guidelines.
"The council considers all comments carefully and so we will be reviewing this content."

The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government says councils have been given £46.4bn this year and it'll work to get councils their financial settlement for next year as soon as possible.

Council tax payers in Warwickshire are going to have to pay more money from April after a 5% increase was agreed at Shire Hall.
The controlling Conservative group saw their budget approved at Thursday's full council meeting with amendments from the Greens and Labour being dismissed.
