Stage 4 design is progressing apace for the new dining hall at Alfriston School in Beaconsfield.
After a significant setback last year, when the original main contractor appointed under a design & build contract entered liquidation, the project is now moving forward again under a traditional procurement route, with dedicated fundraisers also now being engaged by the school to help bring the vision to life.
Originally won in competition in 2023 and granted planning consent in 2024, the project has been carefully designed to support the needs of Alfriston’s students — a secondary SEN school for girls in Buckinghamshire.
The new building will provide a variety of dining environments tailored to students with neurodivergent needs, offering choice, comfort and flexibility throughout the day. Alongside dining facilities, the scheme also includes spaces where students can grow, prepare and cook their own food, helping to foster independence, confidence and life skills.
We’re excited to see momentum building once again on such an important and meaningful project. 🌿☀️
