BPG were commissioned by Diamond Ltd to act as lead consultant and Architects for this extensive phased refurbishment and expansion scheme. The scheme at the Victorian school entailed substantial refurbishment works to a number of existing buildings as well as a new two storey classroom extension. Works included M&E service upgrades, roof works, asbestos removal, new fit-out of sports hall and overhaul of existing windows and brickwork. Externally a new multi-use games area, new canopies over reconfigured entrance doors and new children’s play equipment along with other areas of new soft and hard landscaping. The new build classroom extension achieved BREEAM very good rating and included the use of brise soleil to enhance the building aesthetics while reducing solar gain into the classrooms to prevent overheating. All the works were completed while the school remained fully operational by phasing the work and maximising the use of school holidays. BPG were subsequently appointed by the same contractor to work on Welbourne Primary School.
