Jerram Falkus is always keen to employ the use of Green Technologies where possible and within this project Sun Pipe Lighting was incorporated in to the design in order to help illuminate the 338m2 educational facility. Due to the confined location of the site, management of the project had to be of the highest order to allow efficient coordinated working to be carried out without danger to pupils and staff in adjoining areas.

Project: Jack Tizard Client London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham Architect Hox Design (formerly Clarke Kidwell Architects) Quantity Surveyor John Cobb & Partners Contract Period 52 weeks Contract Value £3,142,000

Design & Construction of a Flagship SEN Educational Facility The construction of a two/three storey, steel framed, special needs educational facility with state of the art medical facilities, for the London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham. The front elevation boasting a large mosaic feature wall. The construction of this structure with external services and infrastructure commenced after the demolition of the old school buildings. Colour coded corridors help the students navigate around the school and help visual recognition within the students. A Sensory Development room helps the most severely disabled pupils (aged 3-18 yrs) gain enjoyment from sites, sounds and textures other pupils take for granted. This is managed through the substitution of those mediums with forces the student can distinguish and appreciate. A gym, secure external play areas and creative internal décor means the students are able to learn and develop while in a surrounding that suggest comfort, fun and specialist care.
