Edith Borthwick caters for children with severe and complex learning difficulties, and accommodates 220 pupils aged three to 19. As class sizes grew, the school needed a quick solution to its need for more accommodation.
Read on for the full story.
Elite Systems provided a turnkey off-site construction solution including design, manufacture and installation of 190 sq m of classroom space, with a sizeable cold-pour rubber crumb play area, mains services and security fencing for Edith Borthwick.
The modular building comprised an entrance lobby with coat and shoe storage, two classrooms, two toilets plus an accessible wet room and WC, two meeting rooms and four stores.
The design specified cedar larch cladding on the external walls, combining aesthetics with sustainability and durability, while anthracite aluminium windows and doors were selected to co-ordinate with the existing building.
