Greenfields Junior School

A significant change in level between the extension and the original school has been utilised to provide a new entrance and learning resource area at the same level as the existing car park.

This has resulted in a dynamic approach with increased visibility to and from the new entrance that significantly improves the school’s presence within the community.

The teaching accommodation has been located to create a landscaped secure courtyard with floor to ceiling elevations of glass and timber under a unifying flat roof extended to provide solar shading and shelter. Four large lanterns provide colour as well as light and ventilation to the classrooms.

The classrooms are naturally ventilated with louvred panels adjacent the windows which have opening panels plus high level opening in the roof penthouses to enhance ventilation levels when necessary.

Heating is via ceiling mounted radiant panels. Whilst lighting incorporates LED downlights in common parts and strip LED luminaires in the classrooms.

This elegant extension to an existing SCOLA built junior school was commissioned by Hampshire County Council.
