Work on Kingsbrook Secondary School will start next spring and it is expected to open in time for the 2022 academic year.

The new schools is situated within the Kingsbrook housing development, where Morgan Sindall is currently on site delivering Kingsbrook View Primary Academy.

Both projects are being delivered under the Southern Construction Framework.

David Rowsell, Morgan Sindall Construction’s Northern Home Counties area director, said: “We’re delighted to be continuing our strong partnership with our valued and longstanding client Buckinghamshire Council and procurement partners at the Southern Construction Framework following our appointment as preferred bidder on this key development.

“Kingsbrook Secondary School will enhance the educational provision available for this fast-growing community and create a high quality, energy efficient building, in line with Buckinghamshire Council’s commitment to achieving zero carbon by 2050.

“We’re also pleased to be creating a positive legacy within the community – creating new jobs, and opening out access to training and skills development opportunities for people living locally.

“The Southern Construction Framework has helped to drive a focus on collaboration and communication that is vital at the design and early planning stages of a development.

“This has supported a smooth and strategic cost planning process and means the whole team and our partners are able to work together to leverage their experience and knowledge to add value before work on-site has even begun.”
