FOCUS ON SCHOOL SUPPLIERS
PREMIER MODULAR PROVIDES DECANT CLASSROOMS ON TOP OF ANOTHER MODULAR STRUCTURE AS PART OF SCHOOL REDEVELOPMENT
P
remier Modular, one of the UK’s leading offsite specialists, has delivered a highly unusual project to provide decant teaching
facilities at Douay Martyrs Catholic Secondary School in Ickenham. The temporary classrooms, science laboratories and SEN spaces have been sited on top of a permanent modular building and while that building was under construction. The school, which has over 1,500 students, is undergoing a
comprehensive refurbishment, part of which included a new single storey modular annex. Premier won the contract to supply temporary accommodation, under a rental arrangement, to keep the school operational while the main school building is refurbished. Limited space on site meant that the best location for the decant accommodation was on top of the new modular extension. Anthony Corish, Executive Headteacher at Douay Martyrs Catholic
School said, “We were very keen to minimise any interruption to the children’s learning from the redevelopment and following the pandemic, so providing a comprehensive facility for in-person teaching and social interaction were key priorities for the school. Premier’s classrooms give us all the facilities we need for the next year, and pupils and staff were able to move in without any disruption to their education.”

Bringing Engineering to Life T
The University of the West of England (UWE) has invested in
a new School of Engineering with the commitment to increase the number of women and people from underrepresented groups working in the sector, in particular aerospace. The multi-million-pound
building, located at the Frenchay campus in Bristol, has enabled it to expand its intake of students to 1,600. This contributes to the University's vision of promoting multi-disciplinary,
collaborative learning and supporting the predicted increase in demand for skilled engineering graduates across the region. Set over four floors, the 8,500 mt sq, modern building houses many
different engineering disciplines in a contemporary space. The site features teaching studios, modelling and simulation suites, laboratories, specialist workshops, and student learning zones, accommodating many engineering disciplines such as composite manufacturing, machining, and metrology. Eunan Scanlon, Technical Director - Building Performance Engineering,
Hydrock comments, “Hydrock provided multidisciplinary services to UWE on their new state-of-the-art Engineering building. We developed the lighting and lighting controls strategy in collaboration with AHR Architects, UWE stakeholders and Zumtobel. The engineering building comprises of a central Atrium with perimeter engineering facilities, with hard engineering workshops on the ground floor then labs and teaching spaces on the upper floors. From the concept we worked up lighting solutions for each individual space to meet the requirements identified, including specific luminaires for harsh environments and/or scene setting, the lighting controls for specific tasks during the teaching timetable. The lighting controls were developed to significantly utilise the fantastic architectural daylight distributed throughout the building.”
