Notts County Council has allocated £100,000 emergency funding to allow other parts of the school and other schools in the White Hills Park Federation to be used for classes instead.
A council spokesman said: "The key point is this has come to light in good time so the problems can be managed without any risk to the safety of students or staff."
A series of meetings with parents are taking place this week.
