Description

We are delighted to announce that we have successfully completed the contract to develop The Tram House, Clapham to provide a new school for 40 staff and 36 pupils with ASD.

Now complete, the new school provides much-needed specialist education places and excellent facilities to educate Secondary and 6^th Form students with a primary diagnosis of autism. The building has been delivered with older students in mind, helping to develop clear pathways to employment and further education. The building also includes age-appropriate facilities such as a gym, domestic units, community dining area, social spaces, careers library, and cooking areas.

The construction works, which have been delivered on an extremely confined site, have involved the provision of a four-storey building and basement, utilising a concrete structure and a Metsec steel frame and composite steel deck flooring to the upper floors.

Design features on the building include a green roof, glazed brick-setts to the ground floor external elevation, and aluminium timber composite windows with full-height glazing to the staircase.

The building has achieved a BREEAM 'Very Good' rating and was the winner of the 'New Build Large Project' category in the H&K Safety Services Health & Safety Awards.
