In partnership with Architecture and Design Scotland, we held engagement events with school staff and learners in October 2018 and with stakeholders in September 2018.
We spoke with
to understand what they need and how they might benefit from the new sports complex.
In January 2019 we used the feedback from the engagement events to produce some concept proposals.
PHASE 2
The design process for the replacement and refurbishment of the school on the main site is progressing. The plan is to keep and refurbish the Victorian building, which is the red sandstone building on Craighall Road. We would then demolish all the other buildings and construct new facilities which will adjoin the Victorian building.
