Lengard have successfully completed the refurbishment and new extension works at Darell Primary and Nursery School for the London Borough of Richmond Upon Thames.
The works were carried out in two phases. The first took place during the summer holidays over a 5.5 week period with enabling works to classrooms over 3 floors. The second phase covered 6 areas on the ground and second floors during term time.
Works included the demolition of the existing kitchen and metal fire escape stairs and associated works. On the ground floor, we created two new office areas, new pupil and staff toilets, enlarged kitchen and server with direct access to the hall. New external doors were fitted to three ground floor classrooms to allow direct access to the playground.
The construction of a new extension on the second floor provided three new teaching areas, a studio, library, food technology room and break-out area. The existing classrooms were remodelled to accommodate the additional pupil numbers.
