Lister Community School expansion is one of our latest projects with Newham, following successful completion of 18 education schemes over the last 10 years, with values ranging from £1m through to £21.5m (total £80m). 

Collaborative relationships, proven efficiency, value for money and quality performance influenced our appointment through competitive two-stage design and build procurement to undertake these complex remodelling and extension works alongside a concurrent new build modular expansion. Multi-stakeholder engagement and close communication has been critical to minimise disruption and ensure H&S when working across multiple areas within the live school site. Our works on-site include:

• JFK Building – Internal remodelling of existing classrooms, with external hard and soft landscaping works
• Library – A new steel frame extension along with external hard and soft landscaping works to form the library garden.  Second floor – Conversion of an existing external garden area into an internal science class room, along with remodelling of the existing science class room
• Dance studio – converted into a lecture theatre, included the installation of 2 mezzanine floors at first floor level
• Café/Fitness studio – included the remodelling of the existing drama areas, and a steel frame extension to the front of the site that formed a new café area.
• Entrance areas – A new canopy installed during the summer break and existing voids in the first floor level infilled
