Project details

Bradfields Academy is an innovative and leading specialist SEND provision for students with complex learning disabilities and difficulties.

With the increasing need for expansion, the provision of a new build teaching block enables the academy to provide an additional 100 pupil places.

The new block, situated amongst existing school buildings and bounded by woodland and residential areas, has been integrated within the existing built environment by utilising similar materials and colours. The 2-storey element features brick and timber cladding, with the facade of the single storey featuring Rockpanels Metal Cladding, differentiating the two distinct aspects of the new block, whilst enhancing its visual appearance.
