The Proof of the Pudding
 

Llanwern High School has been one of the jewels in the crown of Welsh construction and CEW since its completion in 2012. One of the stars of the CEW Awards and an Exemplar project it is a great demonstration of the core Constructing Excellence principles of collaboration, integrated teams, committed leadership and respect for people.

The project, which was completed in 2012, has created a new community focused Secondary School which has led to increased educational performance, higher pupil intake, greater community engagement and increased regeneration of the area. Significant social benefits were derived during the construction stage through engagement with local schools, recruitment and up-skilling of economically inactive individuals and business opportunities for local suppliers. These social benefits are continuing through the active community use of these facilities. Significant environmental benefits are also being experienced through the increased energy performance of the assets.

Last week the team, the head teacher and the client shared their experiences and gave a frank portrayal of the positive impact on pupils, teachers and educational outcomes as well as the reaction of the local community. 

Ed Evans, director of CEW said: “It’s always good to see such a great project come to fruition especially when the operational outcomes are so positive – this project demonstrates, very clearly, the benefits of collaborative working through integrated teams.”
