Esh Construction has scooped a deal to build a £4.1million primary school in Sunderland.
Sunderland City Council selected the contractor to develop Willow Fields School Primary School at Red House.
The works comprise the provision of a new build one and half form entry primary school, with all associated external works and services.
Esh Construction is the main trading arm of Esh Group, one of the region’s leading privately-owned construction, development and property services businesses.
Sunderland City Council gained planning approval to transform the site of the former Maplewood School into the new Willow Fields Primary School earlier this year. Located in the north area of Sunderland, the one-storey building will replace the current school, which is located on a nearby site and has been assessed as being in ‘poor condition’.
Faye Dolan, Key Account Manager (North) at Procure Partnerships Framework said: "We are proud to support Sunderland City Council with this scheme and pleased to see Esh demonstrating their commitment to the local economy. Esh has proven success in the education sector and Procure Partnerships Framework are delighted to be supporting client and contractor through project delivery. We’re looking forward to seeing the new school take shape. The new facilities that this development provides will allow Sunderland City Council to continue offering the very best education and care to children in the local community."
