A new £21.5 million community campus has been handed over in Fife.

The Windmill Community Campus was built by BAM Construction on Windmill Road in Kirkcaldy.

The development will house Viewforth High School with enough accommodation for up to 600 pupils. In addition, Rosslyn School will move into a new purpose built facility on the campus.

Features include modern teaching spaces with integrated technology, a new sports centre and library, available for community use, and a local office for the council.

The campus is the final project to be built under the Building Fife's Future Framework which delivered Dunfermline High School in 2012 and Auchmuty High School in 2013.

Doug Keillor, Regional Director at BAM, said: "Windmill Community Campus is an inspiring and innovative building and a fine example of how a strong public and private sector relationship can deliver a first class building, on time and within budget, that will greatly benefit the local community."

Kirkcaldy Area Chair, Councillor Neil Crooks, added: "This is an exciting time in Fife as we near the completion of both Windmill Community Campus and Levenmouth Academy, with the new Waid campus due to open next summer. This is a new way of working for the Council where we are able to provide state-of-the-art high schools which will incorporate a range of community facilities, all under one roof."

The new campus is due to open on 17 August.
