West Linton Primary School

NORR Consultants Ltd

The school will comprise of 12 classrooms, nursery, community hall, library and support accommodation arranged around a curved central street with the teaching blocks as 'fingers' off this street. The curved element forms an inviting civic front to the adjacent access road while the teaching fingers maximise connectivity between classrooms and external teaching spaces. The use of sensitive materials such as natural stone, timber and zinc means the building sits well with the adjacent historic village centre while the use of a laminated timber frame maximizes the use of local renewable materials.
