Bellbird Primary School, Cambridge

  • As a new-build, Bellbird Primary School was a good opportunity to use a range of green technologies.

  • We achieved a safe and secure environment with the inclusion of external lighting, access control, CCTV and a sophisticated alarm system.

  • The building management system we installed manages windows, doors and heating in The Arcade linking the entrance and hall to The Atrium, allowing electronic control for natural ventilation.

  • A special feature was the underfloor heating, supplied by air source heat pumps.

  • And as a focal point, we created The Atrium − a shared learning space with an ICT pod onto which each of the 9 classrooms opens up.
