John Port Spencer Academy

New build and internal alterations

With our on-site team led by Mr Adam Bass, working alongside the design team at Thinking Buildings, we have successfully delivered a modern new science teaching block and upgraded the existing facilities at John Port School.

The project includes four state-of-the-art science classrooms, two dedicated prep rooms with fume cupboards, new office space, and a lift to improve accessibility.

Featuring a high-quality internal fit-out designed to inspire learning and innovation, the scheme is complemented by a striking zinc-clad exterior that gives the building a bold, contemporary identity.

We’re proud to have created a facility that seamlessly blends modern design with functionality — and we hope pupils and staff enjoy their new teaching environment for many years to come.
