The proposal included a two-storey structure featuring a double-height hall, a drama and activity studio, staff facilities, changing rooms, a music classroom, and dedicated practice areas — all designed to support a diverse and modern curriculum.

The project presented several M&E challenges that were collaboratively addressed by the design team, including the development of a compliant ventilation strategy in line with BB101 guidance to ensure appropriate indoor air quality and thermal comfort.
The scheme benefited from a strong and cohesive professional team, capable of making timely and effective decisions to maintain progress and ensure the programme remained on track.
