A basic description of the project |
The new School will provide places for 202 students with severe, profound and multiple learning difficulties for students aged from 2 years through to 19 years old, run by a staff amounting to some 200 in number.
Together with specialised teaching accommodation and the hydrotherapy pool, the school will have specialised facilities in the form of physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech and language therapy, and nursing team and consultancy suites which are to be provided in the new building.
Externally and internally the construction and finishes are designed to achieve very good BREEAM standards with excellent thermal, acoustic, and Eco-friendly elements of structure being incorporated in the walls, floors and ceiling construction.

|
A basic description of the building |
The structure on plan comprises 3 single storey learning bases and one 2 storey block which will house the new hydrotherapy pool. The Post 16 block will be refurbished and connected to the new school via a link corridor.
The structural design is based on a steel framed building based on concrete pad foundations. The envelope is a mixture of curtain walling, render and timber cladding.

Biomass to provide about approximately 100% of the year round heating and hot water load
Wind turbines located off site to provide approximately 10% of the energy use. There is also some contribution from 1.5KW wind turbine on site. (Wind turbines are subject to planning permission)
Collecting rainwater for toilet flushing and site irrigation
All thermal insulation values will be compliant with Building Regulations Part L and exceeded where possible. (see section 18.1)
Future provision for under floor cooling will be allowed.
All sustainability features will be prominent, legible and (wherever safe and practicable) accessible to students, visitors and staff. Environmental performance data will be linked to building management systems, displayed in public areas, and available online for detailed study
