Weatherfield Academy needed new learning spaces to keep up with demand and support the particular needs of #SEN students. "Our biggest need was space. We have a demand for special needs places in Central Bedfordshire. And we were at capacity with our classes and classrooms. We had young people that were waiting for places at our provision, and some wouldn’t be attending their mainstream school because they couldn’t access the special education they needed. So you have students waiting for a place, and lots of time spent on SEND tribunals for those students , so that’s a cost in opportunity for young people and in time and work for us." Liam Meenan, Head Over the last few years, Vertis has built five new classrooms for the academy. "Everyone wants to be in these new classrooms." "Our school covers a wide range of ages from seven-year-olds to 19-year-olds. The new buildings have allowed the students aged 16 to 19 to have their own area, giving them some independence and treating them more like young adults. We do have pre-fab buildings on site as well as our existing classrooms and the new builds are much more spacious, more airy, warmer in the winter, and provide more natural light. They provide the soothing, non-threatening space our students need. And the bifold doors enable students to get out in the environment as and when the weather allows, So we’re very pleased with them."

Sutton V.A Lower School, a small village school within the St Albans C of E Diocese, was required to convert to a full primary school to fit Central Bedfordshire Council's move to a #twotier #education system. Back in 2019, we created a modular school building, ‘The Larch Classroom’, for Sutton Lower as a new home for Years 3 and 4. Previously, two year-groups were using the same classroom and this meant they could release much needed space within the main school building. Fast forward to 2024, and Vertis continues with the transformation project by helping extend the school to a full Primary (Reception to Year 6) by adding a Key Stage 2 classroom, a hall and an all-weather games pitch.

The vast majority of enquiries we receive at Vertis from schools wanting to build additional classrooms DO NOT require planning permission. Government legislation was updated in April 2021 to promote infrastructure growth giving schools an enhanced permitted development allowance. This means that most of our new classroom builds fall within the school's permitted development rights, saving typically 3 months of time and money.
