St Edmund’s School in Canterbury is one of the County’s leading independent schools. The School had a number of modular classrooms in use which did not provide the required level of teaching spaces expected. The project was therefore born out of the need for new, up to date teaching facilities, which would also improve the aesthetic image for that part of the School. In addition, the new building would be designed to be sympathetic to the gothic style of Architecture found elsewhere within the main buildings of the School, whilst setting out the long term strategy for future expansion.
