As part of the larger Central Somers Town Regeneration project, Neilcott was appointed to design and construct a state-of-the-art new BREEAM Excellent school to house the out-dated Edith Neville Primary School.

The new school benefits from high-quality feature design, specifically designed to be flexible enough for a future expansion to a 2 form entry and was constructed using a Cross Laminated Timber structure. Constrained logistics and access required careful planning to minimise disruption within this residential neighbourhood, including out of hours deliveries for large span CLT panels.

Following construction of the new school, the old school building was demolished and associated landscaping, public realm and access works were carried out.
