Langar CofE Primary School's summer extension works were completed on time and on budget, ready for the pupils to start benefiting from the larger classrooms the very next day.  Staff and pupils are all pleased with the results, which contractors Harry Richmond & Partner managed to squeeze into the six weeks of summer break that was all that was available to them.

The extension reflects on the materials used for the previous large-scale building work done to the school, effectively book-ending the original CLASP building and bringing balance to the overall composition.

It's been an eventful week...

Helen has completed her year of architectural experience and headed off for a well-earned break and the chance to gain more work experience in the antipodes before returning to the UK to complete her university training next year.

And Tim has decided to move on, widen his experience of office life, and work with a practice in Leicester.

We hope they both have some great adventures, and wish them every success with their future careers!

The steelwork for Walkers Midshire Foods' latest expansion to their Leicester site is now up; ready to be clad with their distinctive burgundy company colours.  Large trusses minimize the internal columns, whilst providing a first floor ready to take the majority of the staff's changing facilities and a significant flow of people at shift change.

We have been helping Langar CofE Primary School with their need to extend a couple of classrooms over the upcoming summer break.  The Planning Application has been approved, and the project fully detailed up and costed and ready to hit the ground running come July.

The school was originally built as a small CLASP annexe to the main facility around 40 years ago, and was significantly extended to form the prime and only school site in 2009.  Our extension builds off the original CLASP shell; amalgamating the scale and modulation of the CLASP system with the materials of the recent additions.
