Providing a safe, secure & inspiring environment for SEMH pupils Thomas Estley Community College, Broughton Astley, Leicestershire
“At Thomas Estley we work hard to live up to our ethos: A community of courage and commitment to success. A busy and muchextended secondary, we wanted two dedicated classrooms away from the school environment for young people aged 11 to 16 with social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) difficulties. S2e worked with us to build exactly what we needed.”
Thomas Estley Community College, Broughton Astley, Leicestershire
TIMELINE Planning application – June 2020 Out to tender – June 2020 Return – July 2020 Start on site – 21 July 2020
The Task – Minimising Disruption With access limited – off the main entrance to school – keeping disruption to a minimum was a key challenge. To avoid lengthy traditional construction with multiple deliveries on site, S2e advised a modular building that could be completed off site and brought to us in a kit for quick assembly. They used pad foundations to protect our mains gas supply, ensured fire safety given proximity to our main school building and designed a brilliant specialist teaching area.
Completion – 4 August 2020 Budget: £409,000
