Construction News Image
BAM has been selected to build a new £10 million primary school in Huddersfield.

The company will deliver the Beaumont Primary Academy on behalf of Kirklees Metropolitan District Council. Work is underway on the project and completion is scheduled for the start of autumn term in 2018.

The school has been designed by BAM Design and the company will use its own mechanical and electrical works on the development.

The scheme follows the completion of the 420 place Royds Hall Primary School building, which BAM has also delivered for the Council, and before that the new Huddersfield Leisure Centre.

Construction Director Jason Pink said: "This is a 630 place three form entry primary school which we negotiated directly with the Council under the auspices of the YORBuild framework, and following our previous work for them. It's taken a while to get to site because of site complications, and it will be built in the grounds of Moor End Academy.

"It is a two storey building with brickwork and render, located close to Beaumont Park. As such, we're working with Friends of Beaumont Park to find ways we can add some value to the area. This appointment is an excellent sign of how closely Kirklees Council and ourselves have been able to work together and collaborate effectively."
