Colebourne & Beaufort School, Birmingham
Colebourne & Beaufort School, Birmingham City Council
Colebourne & Beaufort is a ground breaking integrated school bringing together
primary and SEN schools.
The building is part single storey providing accommodation which includes a hall
and hydro therapy pool. The classrooms form a two storey building with a central
area for group activities. The whole new build area is in the order of 3500m2. The cost of the project is in the order of £9.5m which includes the remodelling
of an existing school on the site and extensive external works.
Modified Scape Technology has been utilised in the design providing a helpful
discipline in the structure. The external cladding is mainly brickwork with some
render. The project’s external design has been particularly challenging as it
responds to the sensitive aspects of the site.
GS Tomlinson are the contractor for the project, appointed under Birmingham City
Council's framework arrangements.
