The Building North West business of British construction company Galliford Try has commenced work on a primary school project in Stretford, Manchester, UK.
As part of the School Rebuilding Programme, this project will see the development of a ‘Net Zero Carbon in Operation’ facility to accommodate St Ann’s Roman Catholic Primary School.
The development includes the construction of a new 2,400m², two-storey school with a nursery, reception, and classrooms for both infants and junior school students.
Furthermore, it will comprise staff rooms, a kitchen, a multifunction hall, and hard and soft play spaces.
The school will use air-source heat pumps and solar panels for energy, instead of fossil fuels.
Using off-site precast concrete panels provided further benefits by eliminating on-site trades and increasing the building’s longevity.

Galliford Building North West managing director Darren Parker said: “This exciting new project will see a much-needed upgrade to the old school, with more space being added for students to learn and play.
“We are proud to continue to create the best educational environments for our clients, while ensuring that the buildings themselves are fit for the future, helping to address the Net Zero challenge.”
In September this year, Galliford was selected for the second phase of the £8bn Procure Partnerships Framework project.
