School Rebuilding Programme

Highams Park School is excited to be part of the government's School Rebuilding Programme. You can read more about that here.

Since the announcement in 2021 the school has been working closely with the Department for Education and their advisors to come up with a design for the new school. This was submitted in July 2023 to the local planning department and finally received approval in June 2024.

The DfE have appointed Bowmer + Kirkland (B+K) as the main contractor. B+K have an excellent record in building schools and we look forward to continuing to work with their team throughout the project.

It is anticipated that work will start on site early 2025. In September 2025, we will move many of our classrooms and offices into a temporary modular building which will be located on the field. We have worked hard, in partnership with the DfE, to ensure that the disruption caused by the building work is kept to a minimum.

The temporary building will have classrooms, IT rooms, Library, Canteen,toilets and offices in it. The images below are an example of the temporary building which is being built for us to our design requirements.
