Overview
This recently opened academy in Leicester is one of the UK’s first net zero carbon secondary schools and the very first secondary of its kind in the East Midlands, setting a new standard for more sustainable school infrastructure.
The building is equipped with solar panels, air source heat pumps, and a natural ventilation system, meaning that the school can operate without fossil fuels and offset its greenhouse gas emissions.
The school also offers some of the best educational facilities in the region. Alongside modern classrooms, a stunning library in the middle of the building that can be viewed from any floor, multiple music rooms, a drama studio, and state-of-the art design and technology spaces, students also benefit from outstanding sports provision.
Working with the expert team from Wates Construction, we gave a great deal of thought to every aspect of design, movement through the building, furniture and the colour scheme to create an optimum learning environment.
We are thrilled to have such a magnificent building which matches the ambition we have for our students. We know that education has the power to transform lives; with our committed and talented staff team, we are poised to indeed BUILD BETTER FUTURES.”
