The scheme remains on target to achieve BREEAM ‘Outstanding’, having achieved a score of 86.3% at design stage. The judges were particularly impressed by the integrated approach to sustainable design and development and the depth of consideration throughout the design. The primary school and nursery won a Public Project Award (design stage) at the BREEAM Awards 2018. McLaren worked closely with environmental specialists Max Fordham throughout the project. The yard provided areas for on-site mock-ups and stockpiling materials until they were required on site. The limited site space available was kept clear of unnecessary materials by using a temporary holding yard within a mile of the site. Deliveries to site were scheduled on a just-in-time basis, within strict time zones. Noise was monitored throughout the works and temporary acoustic protection applied where needed. During our Florence Nightingale workshop, Florence will visit your school and share her experiences as she strove to become a nurse and to improve. Sports facilities include an indoor sports area within the school hall, a multi-use games area and direct access to the grass pitches of Hackney Downs.Ī carefully considered logistics strategy was developed to minimise traffic and disruption to local residents. All of our classes are directed by certified Montessori teachers and highly qualified assistants. Other features include an eight-metre climbing wall in the school hall, an outdoor garden with water features in the early year’s playground and a water pump with dams in the Key Stage 1 playground. Nightingale Montessori is a non-profit private school affiliated with American Montessori Society and chartered by the State of Ohio Board of Education for K-12 and offers programs for toddlers through high school. The building has specialist teaching spaces dedicated to ICT, art, cooking, drama and dance. Floor-to-ceiling glass panels in the multi-use learning space at the front of the building provide views across the park. Nightingale School provides 420 primary school places for local children. The resident’s access via a central concierge into the building and have access to two ‘wellness’ rooms, which provides training areas for yoga and resistance training.
