NEW SCHOOL OPENS TO MEET DEMAND

Construction work has been completed on a new first school which is set to open it doors in Staffordshire next month. Bramshall Meadows First School is a new 12,000 sq. metre school opening in Uttoxeter.

The schools state-of-the-art facilities include a nursery, classrooms, a multi-use hall, catering space, outdoor sports pitch, play areas and car parking. Midlands-based main contractor G F Tomlinson has been leading the construction of the school since works last year.

The school will offer places for pupils from ages four through to nine-year-olds, as well as nursery placements from September when the academic year begins, with an official opening ceremony will be held in October. The £4.3 million scheme has been completed through Staffordshire County Council’s capital framework, designed and project managed by Entrust.

Now complete, the school will be led and managed by The Uttoxeter Learning Trust. The new, single storey school has been developed as part of a wider plan to expand first school acceptance rates in Uttoxeter, as increased demand for places has grew rapidly due to new housing in the local area, such as the Bramshall Meadows housing development.

Andrea Cairns, executive Headteacher at Bramshall Meadows First School, said: “We’re absolutely delighted with the new school and the high quality of the build project with all of its amazing facilities. We’re very excited to welcome the first children into school in September.”

 

G F Tomlinson has been entrusted to deliver five schools to date for Staffordshire County Council, with Bramshall Meadows First School being the latest, following the recently completed Fradley Park Primary School in Lichfield. Chris Flint, managing director at G F Tomlinson, said: “We feel very privileged to have been able to deliver this brand-new, high-quality school building for Staffordshire County Council which will create much-needed school places for children in the area.

“The project is the first to be completed in response to the rise in demand for places within Uttoxeter and we feel very proud. We very much look forward to seeing the school welcome pupils in September as the children take their first steps to embark on their academic journeys.

“The school has been designed with future growth and expansion very much in mind. This will provide an excellent learning environment for the growing community.”

 

Jonathan Price, Staffordshire County Council’s cabinet member for education said: “Bramshall Meadows has been built in response to increased housing in the area, which has meant there will be more demand for school places. Whenever there is new housing in an area, we always work with developers, local schools and the Department for Education to put plans in place to meet increased demand for school places.

“It’s fantastic children will be able to learn in a brand-new school with lots of amazing facilities. I’m sure they’re looking forward to starting school life in September.”

New School to emerge from the Rubble of the Old

All that remains of a historic former primary school in Wolverhampton is a pile of rubble – after bulldozers moved in to demolish the 112-year-old building to make way for a new technology learning centre.

Development of the former Edward the Elder primary school site in Lichfield Road, Wednesfield, is now moving forward with plans for the proposed Wednesfield Technology Primary School going before the council on September 13.

Submitted by Birmingham-based Tilbury Douglas Construction Ltd, the application for the new two-storey school will also include a full refurbishment of the existing lodge building, which remains on the land.

If approved, the plans will see a hard play area being created alongside the new school building. The current playing field will also be restored with the addition of a new sports pitch.

Wolverhampton’s education chief, Labour councillor Chris Burden, said that although it was sad to see the old building demolished, the new school would provide a wealth of modern facilities for a wide range of pupils.

“It has been great to hear all of the different stories people have of their time at school in this part of Wolverhampton,” he said.“From reading the planning application, it’s clear that the developer is liaising with the local community and taking their concerns into account.

“This part of Wolverhampton deserves a new high-tech school which prepares students for the modern world. Like others, I wish that would have been possible within the old buildings, but the new building will be fully accessible for disabled students, and able to take more students in a specifically designed building.

“This will also help to address provision in this side of the city and ensure there is capacity to address the growing population.

“I hope that 100 years from now, people will fondly remember the time they spent at this new school, as it provides for the hundreds of new families who live in Wednesfield,” added Cllr Burden, who is the council’s cabinet member for education, skills and work.

Although not listed, the landmark former structure – one of the city’s oldest school buildings – dated back to 1910 but had stood empty and almost forgotten since 2007. The date stone has been carefully removed and will be repositioned adjacent to the entrance of the new development.

Former mayor Councillor Greg Brackenridge said: “The proposals for a new technical school on the former Wednesfield village primary/Edward the Elder school site in Lichfield Road are to be welcomed, as school places are in high demand in our area.“I am particularly pleased that the current lodge building on the site is to remain, as it links historically to the original school. I understand that the building is to be utilised as a support room for students and families.“Also, I am aware of the concerns of some local residents and businesses regarding parking issues in the area expressed during the public consultation, and these matters will be taken into account at the planning committee meeting in September.

1966 building makes way for Science and Technology

Construction of a new £8million state-of-the-art school building has started at the 750-pupil Central Lancaster High School.

Work on a new science and technology block is under way, while work to demolish four buildings at the Crag Road school – originally built in 1966 – will follow shortly. It will then be followed by a second phase later in the year which will add an additional 11 classrooms.

Once complete, the new building will feature five state-of-the-art science laboratories, and new facilities and workshops for design technology and a food technology kitchen.

A new central courtyard will be developed between the new and existing buildings, opening up a central green space for pupils to meet with their friends.

The new science and technology block is being built using modern methods of construction by main contractor Collinson Construction which means it can be built at Collinson’s own factory offsite in Catterall before being assembled on the school grounds once ready later in the year.

The modular construction method means the building can be completed quicker with less disruption for neighbours on Crag Road.

Funding has been secured for the new school buildings thanks to a number of successful bids from The Bay Learning Trust to the Government’s Condition Improvement Fund with the support of Stratus9. Consulting.

The school is hoped to be open to pupils in January, with the second phase set to complete in September 2023.

John Cowper, Principal at Central Lancaster High School, said: “This new state-of-the-art school will be transformational for the education we are able to deliver to the young people of Lancaster.

“Our pupils at Central Lancaster High School deserve excellent facilities and the new school will bring a completely new look to the area. Alongside good quality teaching, these facilities will help students at Central Lancaster receive the best possible education so that they can flourish and go on to achieve at the highest level.”

Sally Kenyon, Chief Executive of The Bay Learning Trust, said: “We aim to provide excellent facilities for all the pupils in our schools. Central Lancaster High School is a very close-knit community and I’m delighted that we’ve been able to secure the funding to build the school that pupils and staff deserve. It will be a great addition to the Bay Learning Trust community of schools.”

Robert Duxbury, managing director of Collinson Construction, said: “We’re proud to be working in partnership with Central Lancaster High School on this project which will provide new high quality teaching spaces and benefit students and staff for generations to come.

“We’re investing heavily into our own modular manufacturing factory in Lancashire, including new state-of-the-art equipment, which coupled with our modular expertise and inhouse design and manufacturing facilities, has allowed the majority of the construction phase to be completed in our factory, with the final fit out works being completed on site – meaning minimal disruption to the wider school.”

The construction forms part of a range of upgrades to facilities across the family of schools managed by The Bay Learning Trust in the Lancaster and Morecambe Bay area, including new science laboratories at Morecambe Bay Academy, along with fire safety and energy improvements at Carnforth High School and Ripley St Thomas Church of England Academy.

In total, over £20 million has been invested in schools across The Bay Learning Trust community of schools since 2018.

Central Lancaster High School is one of the four schools managed by The Bay Learning Trust, a community of schools in the Lancaster and Morecambe Bay area and the only local, multi academy trust. Other schools managed by The Bay Learning Trust include Morecambe Bay Academy, Ripley St Thomas Church of England Academy and Carnforth High School.

Net Zero School Construction Underway – Roundtable Video

Wates Construction is building a temporary school so as to minimise

disruption for the 1,050 pupils studying at the school. Credit: via Wates

A new and more energy-efficient St John Fisher Catholic High School is set to complete in the spring of 2025.

To make way for the new school off Baytree Road, Wates Construction is demolishing the current school structure, which consists of four different buildings that are all in need of replacement.

In the meantime, Wates is working with Premier Modular to install a modular temporary school for the 1,050 pupils currently studying at St John Fisher.

Located adjacent to the current school, this three-storey facility has been designed to meet the Department for Education’s standards. Work on installing the temporary school began this month and is set to finish in the autumn.

Once students have moved into the temporary structure, the older buildings will be demolished. In their place will be a nearly 84,000 sq ft facility with three storeys and a sports block.

Embracing the school’s Catholic identity, the new St John Fisher will also have a chapel that will feature stained glass taken from a decommissioned church in Liverpool.

The future school fits in with St John Fisher’s ambitions, according to regional managing director for the North, Dave Saville.

“They wanted to continue to raise and maintain the aspirations of their pupils,” he said. “They wanted to be the destination of choice for a Catholic education in Wigan.”

Designed by Sheppard Robson, the new St John Fisher will also be net zero carbon in operation. One key aspect of its energy-efficient design is a bio-solar roof. This roof goes beyond your standard PV panels, according to Saville.

“It won’t quite be a verdant meadow up there, but there will be planting and a biodiverse area on top of the roof as well as the solar panels,” he said.

This will give the school a unique look.

Saville said: “The school will look very distinctive and it will stand out from everything else around it. It’s a striking red brick building that reflects the history of the buildings of Wigan but also combines this very modern approach to climate change.”

Planning permission for the school was approved in April.

In addition to architect Sheppard Robson, the design team for the school includes engineer Curtins, planner Avison Young and landscape architect Plincke. CSD is the M&E engineer, OFR is the fire consultant, Nexus Associates is the ICT consultant, and Space Zero is the fixed furniture and equipment designer.

Wates secured the multi-million-pound contract for St John Fisher through the Department for Education’s Modern Methods of Construction framework.

St John Fisher is the sixth school project within the North West region that Wates has been appointed to through the framework, which is a part of the DfE’s 10-year School Rebuilding Programme.

The programme aims to deliver 500 rebuild and refurbishment projects over the next decade.

Construction begins at revolutionary first secure school

Construction is under way at the country’s first secure school – a brand new custodial facility for young people with education at its heart and helping to turn young offenders away from a life of crime.

  • New world-leading approach to youth custody takes shape
  • Education placed at heart of new ‘school within prison walls’ to cut crime and keep our streets safe
  • Young people supported into training and jobs upon release

The school – based on the site of the now closed Medway Secure Training Centre in Kent – will see young offenders go straight from the courtroom to the classroom, with every single pupil enrolled in formal education or training and encouraged into further learning or employment on release.

It will be run by education provider Oasis Restore rather than the Prison Service, and inside it will be laid out like a school inside the prison walls. Staff will be trained to offer a broad curriculum and offer one-to-one learning support, and they will set challenging targets in core academic subjects such as English and mathematics. Ofsted inspectors will hold the establishment to the same standards as all other schools nationwide – ensuring the education on offer is of the best possible standard.

Young people will also participate in a weekly programme of rigorous physical education and have the opportunity to work towards sports and leisure qualifications. This will teach important life skills and provide an invaluable asset towards independence and employability.

Since 2012 the number of children in custody has fallen from around 2,000 in 2012 to around 500. These young offenders are around 50 percent more likely to reoffend than adult offenders.

Though wider youth reoffending rates for children who received custodial or community sentences have fallen from 38 percent in 2012 to 34 percent in 2022 they stubbornly remain nearly 9 percentage points higher than adult reoffending.

They are also much more likely to have had a disrupted a disrupted education. 60 percent are not engaged in education before entering custody due to truancy, suspension, or expulsion, meaning they have lost out on months’ or years’ worth of learning which would have given them the opportunities to steer clear of a life of crime.

Around eight in 10 prolific adult offenders begin committing crimes as children, with the estimated cost to the taxpayer around £17 billion per year.

Deputy Prime Minister, Lord Chancellor & Secretary of State for Justice, Dominic Raab MP, said:

This secure school is a first. It’s effectively a school with prison walls around it that will give the stubborn hard core of young offenders, who need to be in custody, the tailored curriculum and mental health support they need to turn away from crime and get into training and work.

It’s the right thing to do for them and the public, driving down reoffending, and making our streets safer.

The design of the new school is based on international, peer-reviewed research which shows that smaller settings, high-quality education and healthcare provision, and a specialised workforce of teachers and youth workers are vital to successfully rehabilitating young people in custody.

The old prison-style features at Medway have been stripped out and the finished site will look like a residential school rather than a custodial facility, within secure prison walls.

It will house 49 children when full, and will include state-of-the-art, bar-less windows as well as the latest secure in-room technology which will allow children to continue homework and projects in their rooms, organise their routines and contact their families in a safe and secure way.

Construction work will continue until autumn 2023 when the site will be handed over to specialist education provider and operator Oasis Restore, with the first pupils expected to arrive in 2024.

The Rev Steve Chalke MBE, Founder of Oasis, said:

For too long society has bought into the idea that punishing young people will somehow benefit them. All the research shows this does not work. You can’t help a child by harming them. You can’t take children who have been wounded psychological and somehow hope that punishment will heal them. Then, when you release them, wonder why so many reoffend.

Oasis is not trying to ignore a young person’s crime, or to minimise the pain of their victim and family. But, it’s time for a revolution in youth justice. And, we’re excited that Oasis Restore – the country’s first secure school – with an emphasis on therapeutic care, education and positive settlement into life beyond our gates, which enables them to thrive – will be that revolution.

The school’s core focus on getting troubled young people into jobs or further education is part of the Government’s ambitious plan to further drive down reoffending – following a five per cent fall over the last decade.

The construction of the new school builds on the Government’s commitments under the Prison Strategy White Paper to drive up standards of adult education in custody, while also tackling drug and alcohol addiction and ensuring offenders are ready for work on release.

VINCI Building brings enterprise education programme to schools in England and Wales

VINCI Building is bringing enterprise education into primary schools in England and Wales as part of its corporate social responsibility programme. The aim is to help children develop enterprise skills from an early age and to boost awareness of the careers available in construction.

VINCI Building has partnered with 2B Enterprising who have developed an innovative enterprise skills programme called The Bumbles of Honeywood. This programme is exclusively focussed on primary education and is delivered in collaboration with commercial business partners through the 2B Enterprising Corporate Engagement Partner programme. To date, this unique model has partnered 70 businesses with 170 schools across the country educating over 10,000 children.

The schools being supported by VINCI Building are:

Mountford Manor Primary School, Swindon

Bromley Heath School, Bristol

Greenmeadow Primary School, Cwmbran

Richmond Park Primary, Carmarthen

Ysgol Caer Elen, Haverfordwest.

 

The Bumbles of Honeywood programme has been developed by entrepreneurial business leaders and experienced educators with extensive input from teachers. Cultivating entrepreneurship and enterprise skills from a young age shows huge value in equipping pupils for their future lives and careers. Lesson plans have been created to ensure teachers can map the learning to their curriculum – not only hitting entrepreneurial skills criteria but supporting other areas of learning such as Oracy, Literacy, Numeracy and Modern and Foreign Languages.

The programme is built around a series of beautifully illustrated books and interactive extension activities that explore the enterprising nature of honeybees and other characters to help children develop skills such as resilience, problem solving, leadership, communication, and teamwork.

 

Russell Flowers, regional director for VINCI Building, said:

“This is an exciting programme that raises awareness about careers and supports the communities we work in. We want to encourage more young people, in particular more young women, to consider careers in construction, and this programme will help us to achieve that. Our teams really enjoy their visits to the schools and are impressed by the children’s energy and enthusiasm. This is a great investment in our future generations.”

 

 

Jayne Brewer, 2B Enterprising CEO, said:

“We’re delighted to be partnering with VINCI Building to bring The Bumbles of Honeywood into five more schools. Enterprise education is increasingly being recognised as a key requirement, and something that should start from a young age. Our Corporate Engagement Partners play a vital part in this, helping to inspire and educate pupils by giving them real life examples of enterprise in action. As well as helping the pupils gain valuable life skills, VINCI Building are introducing them to the wide array of job opportunities that exist in construction and raising awareness of the exciting building projects happening in their area.”

The Direct Award Approach to Funding

The education sector is well versed in procuring built environment work. However, current market constraints, the latest statistics on the level of work needed across school estates and the lack of associated funding means that it will not be an easy road for many. Emma Hesbrook, regional manager at national framework provider Pagabo, discusses how compliant procurement through frameworks and a direct award approach can support schools with their building programmes.

61 schools have been announced this week as successful in securing funding from the government’s school rebuilding programme. Although, this number is a drop in the ocean when compared to the fact that 1,105 schools applied for support within a short four-week window earlier this year.

With the Department for Education (DfE) planning to support 500 projects in the next decade, that means more than half of this batch of applicants are likely to miss out on funding altogether – and considering the DfE has previously revealed that more than £11 billion of repair work is needed across England’s schools, this is significantly short of what is needed.

To qualify for this latest allocation of funding, schools had to demonstrate that they had at least 1,200 square metres of ‘severe condition need’ to apply. The government has quite rightly prioritised applications with ‘structural or safety issues that pose risk to users’, followed by those showing ‘severe deterioration’ in external walls, roofs, windows or doors, or those with mechanical and electrical systems ‘close to failure’.

However, outside of these categories there are thousands of schools that require refurbishment work that are just as important. As well as maintenance, another consideration is the drive towards net zero. Almost 70 per cent of schools around the country comprise of buildings from before the 2000s – with 20 per cent dating back to the first half of the 20th century or even earlier.

There are no prizes for guessing when education providers prefer – or rely on – construction work to be undertaken considering that summer offers the largest annual window in which sites are significantly quieter. Post-covid, summer has provided an ideal concentrated timespan to get building work, critical repair or maintenance work done.

With such a significant number of schools needing work and likely to miss out on funding, it’s fair to assume that next summer will be busier than ever with summer works – and we may see a marked increase in works during term time as well.

When it comes to carrying out education projects in recent months, we have seen an increase in contractors turning projects off and turning their backs on expensive bidding opportunities. This comes as no real surprise when considering the backdrop of rising costs, and materials and labour shortages across the construction industry – but it has given the direct award process a new lease of life in the procurement realm.

We know that clients have existing supply chain relationships, which must be nurtured. While framework providers are capable of consulting and opening up a network of compliant suppliers, there is intangible value found in building on existing collaboration, which direct award can allow.

The direct award approach is one that can work for both low and high-value projects, offering benefits including greater cost and programme certainty, tailored social value outcomes and no stressful or costly bidding process. It also allows for a quick turnaround for supplier appointment, without compensating on compliance checks.

One such example of a recent scheme that maximised the benefits of the direct award process is Nottingham College. The team approached us in April for a low value project to be completed this summer. The expression of interest went to market via our DPS and Medium Works framework, but with suppliers oversubscribed with work to assign the necessary bidding resource to the project, a direct award was suggested.

Local contractor J Tomlinson was appointed quickly via direct award, getting the project on track and on site within weeks – and is now making excellent progress against the original programme timetable.

Schools craft our experts of tomorrow and without the best environments, pupils’ learning experience will be impacted. This is why it’s so important that the built environment sector looks to support schools with creating those excellent environments, and while funding continues to fall short for schools, we must champion tactics like direct award to help schools in creating the environments they need however and where we can.

Solar developer to power up pupils’ sustainable development

Childen’s charity and solar developer to power up pupils’ sustainable development…

Schools nationwide are being urged to get involved in a programme that equips young people with the skills, confidence and opportunities to lead change and sustainability contributions.

Specialist solar project development company, Ortus Energy, is partnering with leading UK children’s charity, The Youth Sport Trust (YST), to deliver The ‘Youth Leadership Project’- which will use the inspiration and expertise of YST’s established Athlete Mentors initiative to empower young leaders to harness the positive power of play and sport to help improve wellbeing, build friendships, and foster better understanding of one another.

Apart from being environmentally educational, it will also support personal development and consider how young people – as well as leading more active and healthier lives – can work together for a more sustainable planet and future.

This groundbreaking project partnership works because Ortus Energy shares YST’s commitment to educate, inspire and make a difference to the communities in which they work. It’s aimed at young leaders aged 14-16 years to help nurture and inspire younger pupils.

Five schools across the UK (in Croydon, Matlock, West Bromwich, Carmarthen and Dumfries) have been participating in initial co-creation workshops, with 15 more schools to join them for a pilot programme running September to December 2022. The national roll out will run January to December 2023 for a further 230 schools.

To register your school’s interest in joining the national rollout of the programme in 2023 contact:  supporters@youthsporttrust.org.

Ali Oliver MBE, CEO at the Youth Sport Trust, says: “We are delighted to be partnering with Ortus Energy.  These are extraordinary times for our young people and things have become critical for their health and happiness.  We live in a world where we are moving less, where digital technology is having an increasing impact on young lives and where children feel lonely and disconnected.

“This exciting partnership with Ortus Energy will enable us, the Youth Sport Trust, to empower communities of young leaders who harness the positive power of play and sport to improve well-being, build friendships and foster understanding for their peers. We strive to be a globally responsible charity and through our partnership with Ortus Energy we are also committed to enabling schools across the UK to access solar power, increasing their awareness and positive contribution to our climate change crisis.”

 

Alistair Booth, CEO of Ortus Energy, adds: “We’re all about powering change – and change for the better. Supporting Youth Sport Trust enables us to demonstrate that commitment. The power of sport is important, it builds self-esteem, it encourages healthy competition and, most importantly, respect for one another. These are all core values we hold very dear as well.

“Through this collaboration, we also want to help schools become more energy resilient and invest in more positive outcomes – not only for their young people and future leaders through the inclusive power of sport, but a clean, green energy source that will dramatically reduce both fuel costs and their carbon footprint. Together with Youth Sport Trust, we will power a future that is sustainable for the next generation.”
