Edinburgh School Buildings Edinburgh School Building News The City of Edinburgh Council has submitted planning applications for extensions to four of its primary schools using a modular, prefabricated building system. Trinity Primary School Extension This will be the first wave of school extensions which are being rolled out to cope with rising rolls. Designed in contravention of Scottish Government guildelines (the excellent Building Better Schools http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Publications/2009/09/22154600/16) which stipulate that the emphasis of new school building should be on innovation and personalisation rather than on standardisation, the brief for these new buildings prioritiese speed and ease of construction. Sites are chosen where contractor's access is easiest rather than to suit school circulation or passive solar benefits. There is no attempt at school participation, holistic design, greenness, innovation or meeting the ambitions of the Curriculum For Excellence. Wardie Primary School Extension Anyone with an interest in the fine and varied school estate in Edinburgh is encouraged to make comments. The Council’s Children and Families Department has deliberately submitted this a week before Christmas in order to reduce the number of objections it receives as it knows that school offices will be closed and parents busy. Comments have to be submitted by 14 January 2013. Here are links and reference numbers: Trinity 12/04492/FUL Wardie 12/04494/FUL Victoria 12/04490/FUL Granton 12/04491/FUL Edinburgh School Building - Latest Design New Fettes College Sixth Form Building - Craigleith House 2007 Page / Park Architects photos © Keith Hunter Fettes College School Edinburgh School Buildings Edinburgh Schools, alphabetical: Edinburgh Academy - Science Centre Lorn Macneal Architects Fettes School David Bryce Mary Erskine's School, Ravelston William Kininmonth Niddrie Mill & St Francis Primary Schools Elder + Cannon Architects St Margaret's School Edinburgh jmarchitects St George's School Edinburgh Reiach and Hall Architects St Thomas Aquin's School City of Edinburgh Council Architects Stewart’s Melville College Performing Arts Centre Simpson & Brown Edinburgh Primary Schools + Prep Schools, alphabetical: Fettes College Prep School Page / Park Architects Juniper Green Primary School Elder + Cannon Architects St Andrews Primary School jmarchitects Sciennes Primary School Wilson & Carfrae Edinburgh Nursery Schools, alphabetical: Cowgate Nursery Alan Murray Architects Cornbank School Malcolm Fraser Architects Flora Stevenson Nursery Arcade Architects More Scottish Education Buildings online soon News excerpt from 2008 re Edinburgh school: Boroughmuir High Malcolm Fraser proposals to retain Boroughmuir High School on its current site with designs for extending & refurbishing the B-listed school News excerpt from 2002 re Edinburgh school: PPP School opens The combined Pirniehall and St David’s RC Primary Schools in Pilton and the £14m St Thomas of Aquin'’s High School in Chalmers Street opened. 22.08.02 Bankton Primary School, Livingston Arcade Architects photo from the architect Bankton Primary School Enlarge Map
