Event Information
Description
Architecture Today's half-day seminar, Building and Remodelling Schools for Tomorrow: adapting to growth and change, brings together architects, consultants and manufacturers involved in the design, specification and construction of school buildings fit for the needs of teachers, pupils and local communities.
Join us at this free-to-attend half-day seminar as we look at a range of case studies of exemplar projects that demonstrate how – through either new buildings, remodelling, extension or adaption – learning and teaching environments have been created that can enthuse, nurture and inspire people who use them.
Topics for discussion include:
- How are new teaching methodologies informing design?
- Delivering safe and healthy environments on constrained urban sites
- Creating purpose-build spaces for specialist learning
- Developing school masterplans that benefit the wider community
- Establishing identity through design Creating connected inside and outside spaces that support health and wellbeing
Case studies will include Edith Neville Primary School by Hayhurst & Co, Northampton International Academy by Architecture Initiative, Sandringham Primary School by Walters & Cohen Architects and Cottrell & Vermeulen’s Bellenden Primary School.
