The DfE has appointed Galliford Try as principal contractor to design and construct the new school. Working alongside their specialist design team, Galliford Try are now developing detailed proposals for the new Shawfield Primary School.

The current proposals include a new two‑storey school building, located in approximately the same position as the existing structure. This new building will provide a significantly enhanced teaching and learning environment, built to the latest construction standards and designed to be highly sustainable and net‑zero carbon in operation. The redevelopment does not include any increase in pupil numbers or staffing.
