Read about the progress of our School Rebuild Project

Build Update – July 2024

Work has progressed rapidly since our last update, with over 60 units from a total of 90 which make up the temporary school now delivered and installed on our playing field.

These units make up part of the main school building and a separate, a single story building also being built containing our dining hall, kitchen and sports & production hall.

A further delivery of units is due in the next few weeks. Students had a chance to view the temporary school and their classrooms before they left for the summer holidays to help them understand what to expect when they return in September.

Build Update 3 – June 2024

Work has progressed rapidly since our last update, with the over 30 units from a total of 90 which make up the temporary school now delivered and installed on playing field.

These units make up part of the main school building, with a single story building also due to be built containing our dining hall, kitchen and sports hall.

A further delivery of units is due in the next few weeks and in school we’re sharing progress updates with students and planning some supervised visits to the site to get a closer look at what school will look like from September.

Build Update 2 – May 2024

It’s now May and work has continued steadily on the temporary accommodation site. The groundworks are now almost complete with a level surface having been prepared ready for the delivery of the temporary building modules in the next few weeks.

By the end of May, the buildings should have been erected and work will begin on the fit-out.

The builders have their own ‘village’ which is secured off from the main school site for safety reasons. The gaps in the hoarding around the site are deliberate to allow students to watch the progress and prepare for the change that’s coming from September when we move in.

Progress on the temporary school site as of May 2024

Build Update 1

We’re planning to keep you posted with updates of how the build is going on site at Pinewood and here’s an aerial shot of the progress so far.

A temporary access-way has been created on Presdales’ field next to the school to allow access to the area on our playing field where our temporary school will be located while the old building is demolished and the new school is built in the same spot.

Over the Easter Break, the contractors were busy removing 250 lorry loads of top soil and replacing it with 250 lorry loads of stone to form a foundation for the temporary building.

Of course, once the whole project is complete in 2026, the temporary school and it’s foundations will be removed and the playing field put back to grass.
