LIMAVADY SHARED EDUCATION CAMPUS
“Connections into the existing systems were planned for school holidays and particular liaison with the main contractor and electrical contractor was essential in this regard.” A second phase of the project, focused on St Mary’s High School, included demolition work to the front of the existing building to prepare the site for a new STEM extension and additional general classrooms. An existing boiler house serving the right- hand side of the school was located in the area being demolished, leaving large portions of the school without heat and hot water. “We overcame this difficulty by providing a remote containerised boiler room, containing a 300KW oil-fired boiler and a mains-fed 1000L DHW calorifier to cater for heat and hot water requirements,” said Raymond. “Also fed from this boiler house were temporary supplies for the gym/
multipurpose hall, which had also been cut off during demolitions.” Within the extension, a new boiler house serving both the extension and right- hand side of the existing school was built. Once commissioned, the temporary remote boiler plant was removed. “All permanent and temporary works were completed with no interruption to school supplies during term time,” said Raymond. Scott & Ewing Ltd worked alongside the main contractor Woodvale Construction Company Ltd to prioritise health and safety, achieving their target of zero accidents on site. The project was delivered under a NEC 3 Engineering and Construction Contract, Option B with priced bill of quantities. The pioneer project in the Department for Education’s Shared Education Campuses Programme launched in 2014, LSEC was awarded Fresh Start Programme funding in 2016, with the completed campus
