Details
Procurement of a Principal Contractor for the Construction of Thameside Academy Alternative Provision Base. The works comprise two elements: the construction of a new single-storey extension of approximately 33m² to provide a secure entrance foyer, office, accessible WC, meeting room and circulation space; and the internal remodelling of approximately 140m² of existing accommodation to create secure and resilient specialist teaching, break-out and dining spaces. Associated works include the enclosure of the internal courtyard (high-level windows, anti-climb rollers and a new safety surface), site clearance including the removal of one tree, an extended tarmac footpath giving level access to the new entrance, kerb alterations with a dropped kerb and tactile paving, reinstatement and re-marking of part of the car park including an accessible bay, new soft landscaping, bollard lighting, a new rainwater downpipe connection and alterations to below-ground drainage.
