Their current building is to be replaced by facilities that have been designed to provide the best educational experience for each of pupil, such as a large, fully-equipped sensory room, as well as quiet rooms.

"We have built a seriously strong relationship with our client and their team over the last five years and the award winning projects we have already handed over on time and budget demonstrate the major benefits that come from long term partnering arrangements."
