New North Community School 

We were the construction partner on this three-storey, design and build community school which is the first integrated children’s centre and primary school development in England. The scheme, which includes affordable and key worker housing, was carried out under a public private partnership with Community Solutions for Schools and Islington Council 
 
The building was constructed using traditional masonry on piled foundations to provide thermal mass and enable natural ventilation. The rotunda portion of the building is steel-framed with one-colour Sto render walls. There is concrete flooring throughout with timber–framed windows and external aluminium cladding.
