ISG Totty Building has been awarded an £860K project, by Kirklees School Services Ltd, to build a virtual science laboratory and new ICT suite at Salendine Nook High School in Huddersfield. The two-storey extension will provide the specialist technology college with flexible, state-of-the-art resources and further enhance teaching facilities at the highly regarded and consistently oversubscribed school.

The virtual science laboratory is essentially a purpose-built demonstration facility, with interactive whiteboards and a fully equipped laboratory bench, enabling the teacher to carry out experiments in front of the students. Located on the ground floor of the new extension, this multi-use space also features computer workstations around its perimeter.

Two new preparation rooms, one on each floor, will also be formed within the extension, which will service the school’s existing laboratories and provide a secure storage area for chemicals. At first floor level, ISG Totty Building will create and fit out a large open plan ICT suite. Work on constructing the new steel frame extension has now commenced, with completion scheduled for spring 2008.

Paul Clarkson, regional construction director at ISG Totty Building, commented: “The education sector continues to prove an exceptionally buoyant market, with ISG securing an increasing volume of enhancement and upgrade schemes at key regional institutions.”
