The new energy efficient 11 – 19 co-educational comprehensive school is situated in the London Dock residential complex and provides 1150 new spaces for local students. It is partly funded by the Department for Education and will be managed by the Mulberry Schools Trust.
Designed by Architype to Passivhaus standards, the building is designed to maximise heat and energy conservation, having a lower impact on the environment and saving on energy bills. Features include enhanced insulation, air source heat pumps and south-facing design that promotes natural light and improves air quality by enhancing the flow of fresh air throughout the building.
