We were delighted to support the development of this modern sixth form centre in our role as BREEAM Assessors and Accredited Professionals (AP).
This project involved the construction of a new sixth form block at Winchmore College in Enfield, to provide the students and staff with high quality teaching, working and social spaces.
Scott White and Hookins were engaged in this project as BREEAM Assessor and AP midway late the design process. We worked hard to ensure that the design and construction teams could understand and implement as many later-stage credits as possible, and supported the contractors with providing high quality evidential documentation.
Key sustainability measures implemented on this scheme included the installation of air source heat pumps and Photovoltaic panels, to minimise the building's operational carbon emissions, incorporating large glazing extents maximise solar gain, and installing highly efficient and dynamic internal lighting to provide healthy learning spaces.
The design team has also ensured that durable materials and finishes are installed to minimise the need for replacement materials, and have designed the building by considering its ability to disassembled rather than demolished at the end of its life.
