Ashmole Academy
A specialist school for science and music in Southgate
The purpose built block uses state-of-the-art prefabrication techniques delivering a bold and strong design. The new sixth form centre is vibrant and tailored for 380 students, mainly studying for A-level.
The use of a modular system allowed the main construction of the building superstructure to take place over a 3-day period with the school fully operational during the whole construction phase, which was completed over a 12-week period. Structure and services were designed to be left visible on the ground floor, creating a modern industrial look that saved costs and allows easy access for future maintenance.
380 students capacity
Twelve weeks total construction period
100% operational school throughout the works
