THE VALLEY SCHOOL
New Build _ 48,542sqm _ RIBA Stage 0-7_ Duration: 16 MONTHS
The Valley School (SEND), Stevenage, Hertfordshire, New Building replaces the old, existing buildings originally designed for mainstream teaching and will provide purpose-built accommodation that will meet the needs of secondary-aged children with learning difficulties.
The new building reflects a commitment to sustainable, responsible growth with net zero carbon emissions. It features biodiverse green roofs and solar panels, while pupils have even been able to re-use timber offcuts from the construction to build bird boxes and bug hotels for the school site. It was completed as the council’s third Net Zero Carbon in Operation scheme.
Our role here was to help deliver the BIM model for MEPH Services, coordinating with the proposed architecture, ensuing fixtures and fitting where set out in a manner befitting that of the end users' requirements and sensitivities to lighting, alignment and useability.
