Central Foundation Girls’s School is a secondary school for 1400 pupils.Rationalising and re-ordering the accommodation of an inner city school building within the Tredegar Square conservation area is the impetus behind this PFI project for Bouygues and Tower Hamlets Council.
The school’s motley buildings have been selectively replaced and refurbished. The result has located two adjacent sites, with more space for sport and a landmark main entrance building with direct access to the school’s specialist areas. The extension to the existing secondary school has created a new school entrance, dining hall, auditorium, science classrooms and roof level multi-games playground.
We have also refurbished a 1930s building to create a sixth form department; remodeled a Grade 2 listed building into an arts/ music and carried out a refurbishment of drama and technology department. Landscaping of external spaces between new and old buildings has created new breakout areas for the students.
