R1 Construction Completes Two Projects and Launches Another, Achieving a £1.2 Million Investment in the Education Sector with YMD Boon. R1 Construction is proud to announce the completion of two standout projects and the launch of a new venture this month, all in partnership with YMD Boon. The combined value of these three projects totals £1.2 million, underscoring R1 Construction’s commitment to delivering cost-effective and energy-efficient buildings in the education sector. In collaboration with YMD Boon—a distinguished team of architects, construction consultants, and health and safety experts—and R1 Construction, a specialist in modern methods of construction (including SIPs and timber frames), traditional new builds, and refurbishments, these projects represent a shared vision of enhancing educational facilities across the East and West Midlands. Achieved through CIF (condition improvement funding), the recently completed projects at Oakthorpe Primary School and Tugby Primary School in Leicestershire have provided both schools with urgently needed new teaching facilities delivered just in time for the new school term. Constructed using timber frame and the Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) method, these high-performance buildings offer durability, energy efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. Following these successes, construction has started at Moreton & Morrell Primary School in Warwickshire. This latest project, which involves replacing a dilapidated mobile classroom with a SIPs-constructed, single-storey building, is expected to be completed by the end of the year. Commenting on the completed projects and the new initiative in Warwickshire, Mark Berrill, Associate Building Surveyor at YMD Boon, said: We are thrilled to continue our partnership with R1 Construction, delivering high-quality learning environments that meet the evolving needs of the education sector. The projects at Oakthorpe and Tugby have demonstrated how modern construction methods can enhance energy efficiency, reduce costs, and provide long-term value for schools. We look forward to continuing this journey with the upcoming work at Moreton & Morrell Primary School." Ben Tomkinson, Managing Director at R1 Construction, added: "We are proud to have delivered these vital projects for Oakthorpe and Tugby Primary Schools and to be embarking on another exciting venture at Moreton & Morrell. "Our collaboration with YMD Boon highlights our shared commitment to creating sustainable, energy-efficient learning spaces that offer real value to the education sector. We look forward to continuing this partnership and delivering more innovative solutions that meet the evolving needs of schools across the Midlands.” #construction #education #conditionimprovement #constructionindustry #achievement
