A new sixth-form College constructed on a sloping site partly situated over the shoulder of a steep embankment.
The Client wanted a modern engineered building to act as a showpiece to attract private inward investment into the school for further development.

This building forms part of an overall development comprising various new buildings with an overall construction budget of £3.0 million.
