A £2.5 million primary school expansion scheme has been completed in Nottinghamshire.
The project was delivered by Ashe Construction and has resulted in an extra 300 school spaces created across the region.
Working in partnership with the East Midlands Property Alliance (EMPA), the scheme was carried out at South Wilford Primary School, Flintham Primary School in Newark and Butlers Hill Infant and Nursery School and Broomhill Junior School in Hucknall. Features included building 10 new classrooms, play areas and a car park.
Sheridan McKnight, partnerships director at Ashe Construction, said: " While each school had been working effectively, high demand for extra places in Nottinghamshire meant that they were starting to outgrow their capacity. As a result, there was a big requirement for new classrooms and spaces.
"Everyone at Ashe Construction has worked hard over the past year to ensure each project was delivered on time and budget and to the highest standard.
"We are delighted that the staff, parents and children are pleased with the finished projects. The completed expansions mean that students and staff will be able to enjoy their greatly improved school surroundings while having even more space to learn."
