An experimental school building designed as linked pavilions around three landscaped courtyards in the 1960s, Vittoria School is being altered by Charles Barclay Architects to make it suitable for teaching in to the 21st century. While keeping the design strategy of the original school, the three class blocks are being extended to the east to give class areas to modern requirements, while a new first floor will provide generous IT and art class provision. CB have worked closely with the school over a number of years to ensure that they work out a design strategy that will be both cost-effective and really improve the day to day feel and running of the school.
