Willmott Dixon Interiors is set to refurbish the Surrey Maths School (SuMS), a specialist institution for talented young mathematicians.

The project will transform a former office space into a new educational facility, with completion expected by mid-2025.

Currently operating from temporary premises, the school will accommodate up to 200 students aged 16-19 in its new location on Mary Road, near Guildford, UK.

The refurbishment will see the creation of 28,911ft² of educational space, including classrooms, quiet rooms, and laboratories, as well as facilities for students with special educational needs.

An auditorium, school hall, and canteen are also part of the plan.

Willmott Dixon Interiors will overhaul the building’s mechanical and electrical systems, introduce new lighting and air handling units, and upgrade the roof and guttering.

This project marks Willmott Dixon Interiors’ first delivery through the UK Department for Education’s (DfE) construction framework.

The company has a history of working on educational facilities, with projects ranging from teaching spaces to student accommodation.

It will also implement various local community initiatives alongside the main project activities, to contribute to social value.

These include employing up to two T-level students and partnering with five local schools to offer work experience placements, workshops, and site visits.

Willmott Dixon Interiors has a track record of significant projects such as the £47m ($60.78m) refurbishment of London South Bank University’s London Road Building and the University of Westminster’s CSE Innovation Centre.

Willmott Dixon Interiors new business head Josh Armstrong said: “We are excited to be delivering our first project through the DfE’s framework agreement. SuMS is a fantastic addition to schools in the Surrey region and will provide an exceptional teaching environment for local young people.

“Our refurbishment will create a number of bespoke spaces for teaching and learning, and we look forward to handing over the completed project next year.”

In July this year, the company procured a contract to enhance the accident and emergency facilities at Royal Sussex County Hospital, a part of an £11m project through the SCAPE public sector procurement framework.
