PROJECT: Forest Gate Community School

LOCATION: Newham BSF

DATE: Due for completion August 2011

Forest Gate Community School has specialist status in Business and Enterprise and was recently awarded specialist status in Applied Learning. As part of the Newham Building Schools for the Future (BSF) programme, the redevelopment of the School has now started on site.

The main entrance will be switched from the north of the site to the south, where a new entrance building incorporates a new four court sports hall and acts as an extension of the shop frontage of the Town Centre. A new landscaped entrance court, as public realm, will provide a fanastic new face to the school to advertise its services to the local community and beyond and a new Enterprise Cafe and conference suite will strengthen the school's specialist status.

The work on Forest Gate Community School is due for completion in August 2011.
