requirements
With a 148-year-old culture of superior academic standards, exceptional pastoral care and their commitment to small teaching groups, St Edmund’s School had a requirement to expand their classroom facilities.
The design had to be in keeping and sympathetic to the surrounding woodland environment.
There was a very short timeframe for the build to be complete, so the Modulek unique hybrid construction method provided an excellent solution to designing a building with a traditional look and feel, as required by local planning requirements and in a short time period.

the building
The groundworks were carried out during the school holiday period, along with the installation and delivery avoiding disruption to school life.
Once the structure was up, traditional slate roof and brick/timber cladding were added, providing a traditional style building that blended with the existing school buildings and surrounding woodlands.
A full turnkey solution provided all aspects of the external and internal finishes.
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.
