McAvoy accommodated the first Buildoffsite Education Hub meeting at Goresbrook School on 7 June 2016 where members had the opportunity to share the challenges they would like to see addressed and identify desired outcomes which will enable the education sector to deliver schools faster, cheaper and more sustainably.
A presentation and tour of the all through school was facilitated by McAvoy to showcase the 10,381 sq m project as well as highlighting the challenges addressed and key design features of the project. The project involved partial demolition of an existing leisure centre and refurbishment of the remaining sports hall as well as the construction of new permanent offsite modular facilities.
Phase 1, the Primary School aspect was handed over in April 2016 with Phase 2, the Secondary School to be handed over in September 2016.
