Workers building contractor, Hobson & Porter, are on site this week preparing the ground for the initial phase of the works.
The primary schools, which are being funded by North East Lincolnshire Council, the Department for Education and through Section 106 contributions, will be run by Lincolnshire Gateway Academies Trust (LGAT).
The projects, based on Matthew Telford Park in Scartho, and on land off Sunningdale in Waltham, received planning approval at the start of the year.

Speaking shortly after Hobson & Porter were announced as the winning contractors, Council Leader, Councillor Philip Jackson, said: "It's great to see this project now progressing, with a building contractor appointed and getting on site. Over the coming months we’ll start to see things happening on site and that’s fantastic.
"These two schools will provide some much-needed additional education provision for children in our area."
The Trust has held events in both villages to showcase its plans for Waltham Gateway Academy and Scartho Gateway Academy. These events were aimed at parents of children who may wish to attend the schools once they open in September 2025.
Both schools will have 210-pupil places, including specialist provision for 12 students with special educational needs and disabilities.
The project is being delivered by Equans, working in partnership with North East Lincolnshire Council.
The two academies will open in September 2025, with admission details for parents being released this Autumn.
