Pupils, staff and governors at Lealands High School in Luton have been celebrating the completion of the school’s £17.5 million makeover this week.
Designed by national education specialists GSSArchitecture, the whole school campus has been completely redesigned to deliver a 21st century learning environment.
Works have involved completely restructuring the school with a clear safe new school and community entrance and arrival space.
New external learning courtyard spaces have been created, providing safe play and social spaces, including covered courts for additional dining and all-weather spaces.
More than 1,000 students are enjoying the completed refurbishment and the redevelopment of all the other classrooms and learning spaces, which now provide a dynamic, inspiring and flexible place in which to learn and play.
Additional community facilities have also been constructed, providing self-contained, accessible function and meeting rooms, with dedicated toilet facilities and catering provision.
GSSArchitecture Partner, Tom Lyons, said: “We are delighted to see Lealands High School complete.
“This fantastic project has provided excellent facilities for the school and the wider Luton community, which has created a flexible, spacious and vibrant learning environment.”
