New Classrooms and Changing Rooms at Bilton Grange School

Phase lIl of our work to Bilton Grange was the provision of a new changing room and shower facility together with outdoor and games clothes storage. It was originally planned to be in the lower ground floor of the East Wing filling a gap between the original building and an existing 1970’s teaching block.

During the course of the design investigation we noted that the classroom block was subsiding substantially. The resultant project thus involved the demolition and reconstruction of two classrooms and the variation of the original design to form a juniors’ entrance into the new classroom building.

The classroom is designed under a low-pitched pyramidal roof of terne-coated steel with overhanging eaves. The link has a partially glazed roof which provides a new focus for the junior entry. The new changing facility allows the previous outdated changing area on the upper ground floor to become a new special geography room, study and classroom.
