Builder BAM has broken ground on a new school building for Yeoman Park Academy in Nottinghamshire, England, UK.
Officials from the UK’s Department for Education, Nottinghamshire County Council, and Yeoman Park Academy were present at the ground-breaking ceremony.
The new school is being built on land near Yeoman Park Academy’s existing academy building.
This project is one of the first 50 to be chosen for renovation under the government’s overarching ten-year, multiwave school redevelopment plan.
This new facility will accommodate up to 138 students and offer teaching spaces, a hydrotherapy pool, a multiuse sports area, and a sensory garden with scope for future community usage.
Yeoman Park Academy principal Courtney Hoop said: “This is a significant milestone in our academy’s history and a development which I know will have a life-changing impact on our community for many years to come.
