About the event

s part of the first wave of the Department for Education School Rebuilding Programme, the project at Greenhead College is going to create modern teaching and learning facilities and enrichment areas, while meeting Net Zero Carbon in Operation requirements.

The project involves the partial redevelopment of the college campus which included a complementary elevational treatment to the facade facing the historic building and Greenhead Park, to deliver an impressive learning environment that supports teaching and learning. The new build element of the project comprises a four-storey 57,000 sq. ft building with an adjacent two-storey 9,600 sq. ft infill courtyard building to provide Biology, Chemistry, Psychology and Government and Politics classrooms into a state-of-the-art facility with laboratories and a suite of administrative accommodation. The new eco-friendly building will also include a main hall, and two dining spaces, split between the new building and the infill courtyard building.

Externally, we will create positive, usable spaces for external teaching, independent study and social interaction, including outdoor sports facilities, hard and soft external social and learning spaces and onsite parking.

Achieving Net Zero Carbon in Operation

A key successful outcome of the project is to meet the maximum energy use intensity of 74kWh/sqm per year in use. This is to be achieved by reducing the amount of energy consumed in the operation of the building to ensure it is highly efficient.

Future-Proofed Design

Throughout the design process, we worked closely with the design team to ensure the building was future-proofed against the potential risks of climate change by modelling the design to future weather files and ensuring any adaptions required can be achieved without changes to the structure of the buildings.
