Re-Format worked with St John’s School, Marlborough from inception to the completion of their new secondary school for 1600 pupils. This completely new school was built alongside an existing working school which was then demolished to provide an enabling housing development. This was an innovative design at £1250 per sq/m, well below BSF guidelines current at the time. This is a high profile site on a hill top above Marlborough requiring a very well conceived design strategy. Planning consent was granted on the first application. Sustainable design using natural ventilation and associated building management system. Client Testimonials: 1)“A stunning series of buildings, designed to maximise natural light, exploit views over the surrounding downland and forests and feel like a community campus rather than a conventional school.” 2)"Re-Format have proven to be immensely resourceful and have fully embraced the financial constraints under which the project is being managed."
