January 2020
B+W are delighted to have started on site at St Crispin’s School in Edinburgh, working with Stothers M&E Ltd and City of Edinburgh Council. The new school is being built on the former Burdiehouse Primary School site, which was demolished in 2010. The new school will provide for 72 children with additional support needs.
The school hydrotherapy pool and a specialist behavioural support unit will support St Crispin’s and other additional support needs schools from across the city. The new school will be used as a community hub, providing facilities and accommodation after school hours and during holiday periods for families of children with special needs, partner agencies and charity groups including The Yard. The main school building will also include a wild-flower roof.
Works are underway and the school is due to open in 2020.
