We are playing an important role in supporting the school to adapt and modernise its building portfolio to meet the complex challenges resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.
"Understandably, returning to school is an anxious time for pupils and parents. But, throughout this project, our expert delivery teams and supply chain partners have adopted strict social distancing measures and followed rigorous guidelines to protect the health and safety of everyone. We are very pleased with the quality of work so far, and I’m confident that the pupils will be impressed with their new surroundings."
