The academy was expanding from 8 forms of entry to 12. The increased student numbers, additional staff, and merger with another academy trust meant additional education and working environments needed to be created.
The school was split across two buildings known as West and East Block respectively. The split site was a legacy from when an upper and lower school occupied the site. The agreed strategy to unify the site, any alleviate existing access issues, was to create a central entry building, referred to as South Block.Â
Building new school facilities is essential for fostering a better learning environment. Modern, well-equipped schools provide students with the tools and resources needed to succeed, from advanced technology to safer, more accessible spaces.
Updated facilities also improve teacher effectiveness and morale, while accommodating growing student populations and enhancing community engagement.
Ultimately, investing in new school buildings ensures that future generations have the opportunity to thrive in a dynamic, supportive educational setting.
