The scheme included the refurbishment of the existing Grade II listed building and the construction of both a three and a one-storey extension. A new Biomass Boiler with district heating main to school buildings provides the heating.

The external envelope is mainly red/brown brick with prominent stone quoins and window surrounds under a zinc roof. The Foyer Elevation is dominated by a full-height glass curtain walling and acoustic ‘flutter-free’ timber soffit.

The main focus of the project was on the repair and preservation of the 17th-century panelling that once lined the nearby 14th-century Chapel. The new auditorium seating and perforated acoustic ceiling sails have been designed with minimalistic lines and colours to enhance this impressive feature.
