The new facility will deliver provision for 64 pupils aged 11-16 with Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs. The scheme aims to create a secure, high-quality, and therapeutically informed learning environment designed to support vulnerable pupils and enable staff to deliver specialist SEN provision effectively. The project is currently completing RIBA Stage 3: Spatial Coordination, following completion of RIBA Stage 2.

Scope of Contractor Appointment: The appointed contractor will: * Participate in a competitive two-stage tender process, commencing with shortlisting of five contractors. * Enter into a Pre-Construction Services Agreement (PCSA) at the start of RIBA Stage 4: Technical Design, working collaboratively with the client and design team to develop the design, plan construction activities, inform cost development, and support risk mitigation. * Upon successful completion of the PCSA and agreement of contract sum, enter into a JCT Design & Build Contract 2024 for delivery of the construction works. The contractor will be expected to demonstrate: * Proven experience in delivering education project or similar public sector schemes. * Strong capability in pre-construction collaboration, buildability input, and cost planning. * A robust approach to quality, safety, safeguarding, stakeholder coordination, and social value delivery.
