East Sussex Council has selected Morgan Sindall to expand Rye Community Primary School.

The firm has started work on the project which includes the construction of a two-storey extension housing a bespoke nursery, two classrooms, a staff room and group work space.

The expansion is to be completed by the end of this year and will accommodate an increase in students at the school. It will provide a purpose built nursery for children from two years of age and will allow them access to an Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum.

The project team at Morgan Sindall will fit a roof light in one of the first floor classrooms to make good use of natural light and deliver some external landscaping including the addition of a soft tarmac area for nursery pupils.

Mark Peake, site manager at Morgan Sindall, worked on-site at Rye Community Primary School when the school was first constructed in 2007.
