Work on the project will get underway in the next few weeks and is due to be completed by June 2017.

Caledonian's offsite programme will reduce the construction period by 40% and will deliver the facility in time for ACS Cobham to have the additional boarding provision available for the start of the 2017 school year.

Caledonian CEO Paul Lang said: "This is a significant project for Caledonian, not only will we be responsible for the manufacture and construction of the modular components of the building, but we will also demonstrate our credentials as a principal design and build contractor."
