Focus and Integration in Education
Involving our Clients in fundamental design decisions, through informing them of the advantages and disadvantages of different options leads to fully developed schemes. At Whitecross High School the Client understood the implications of maximising educational efficiency through thermal mass, forced ventilation and good daylighting and accepted the compromise of reduced architectural flair. The Head Teacher was also engaged in the security strategy from arrangements to gain access into the school grounds to key siting and positioning of CCTV to suit the School’s specific needs as well as Secure by Design.
While working on educational projects for the Herefordshire Council, Stepnell has developed a consistent and highly effective team, which is delivering a major work experience programme, upskilling employees across the team and achieving enhanced performance and profitability through the same team being engaged on successive projects. This has led to Stepnell winning the WMCCE Integration and Collaborative Working Award 2010 - find out more here.
