Galliford Try has been selected by the Education Funding Agency (EFA) for the £35.7 million Hull and East Riding first batch of schools programme.

The batch includes the £18.6m building of Hessle High School and Sixth Form College as well as new buildings for Eastfield, Francis Askew, Wold and Ainthorpe Primary Schools in the area.


Galliford Try Chief Executive Greg Fitzgerald said: "We are delighted to have secured our first success since our appointment to the EFA's main contractor framework last year. Education remains a key sector for our construction business and we look forward to working with the EFA and the schools in the Hull and East Riding batch to produce the high quality buildings and facilities their pupils deserve."
