Springwood School in Bournemouth is a specialist school for students with autism, and required a new bespoke building, to enhance their educational and supported learning on their existing school site. Modulek used their unique hybrid construction method to create a purpose-built school to enable students to achieve their full potential, in a supported environment.

planning a new school building?
Through a detailed understanding of what the school required Modulek designed a unique building which catered internally and externally with every facility to assist children with learning difficulties.
The building includes a sensory suite with soft play, music, speech and language rooms and a smaller room for 1-1 work. There is also a school hall, a kitchen and reception area.
Curved walls were introduced as these are preferred by the students and have beneficial advantages to the learning environment.
To assist with reduced maintenance, anti-vandal window blinds were included as part of the design specification.
External works included boundary fencing, timber decking, landscaping and tree planting.
The spacious classrooms and corridors, state of the art ICT and sensory rooms, individual class play areas and accessible toilets from classrooms will help our pupils to be more independent.

modular school buildings
Modern Methods of Construction lend themselves perfectly for the design and construction of new school buildings that benefit from a truly unique modular approach.
A modular school building is one that is constructed off-site as individual units and is then transported to site and erected into a complete building. Modular school buildings are the perfect solution to additional classroom blocks, sports halls, science labs, humanities blocks and sixth form buildings. The end results is often indistinguishable from a traditional school building.
