About the project

The new block at Rooks Heath brings eight general teaching classrooms together with an acoustically treated recording studio and new IT rooms. The plan provides clear circulation, step‑free access and robust finishes to support heavy daily use. ICT and building services are designed for capacity, flexibility and maintenance.

We secured planning consent, discharged conditions and worked closely with the contractor during construction, providing day‑to‑day project management to maintain programme, quality and safety on this live school site.
