Subbies: ISG has commenced work on a £4.8 million project to create a new performance theatre and modern teaching accommodation for the Performing Arts, English and Modern Foreign Languages departments at Blackpool Sixth Form College. The scheme is part of a wider £20 million campus redevelopment, with earlier phases delivering a new centre of excellence for science and a visual arts studio.
The project involves the phased demolition of the ALT Building on the campus to make way for a new three-storey steel frame structure that will seamlessly link in with the earlier redevelopment phases at the college. ISG will retain part of the existing classroom accommodation within the ALT Building to provide the college with essential teaching space throughout the duration of the project. This partial demolition solution requires complex temporary works to effectively segregate construction activities, whilst maintaining continuity of services within these classroom areas.
At the heart of the new building is a flexible theatre space with retractable tiered seating for around 300 people. This double height space has been designed for a variety of uses including public performances, music events, conferences and as an examination hall. This facility is supplemented by two large drama studios, which incorporate storage areas and practice rooms. The first floor of the new building includes a number of classrooms, staff areas and administrative offices, alongside a balcony with tiered seating overlooking the theatre space. Further classroom accommodation is located to the second floor.
Designed to achieve a BREEAM very good environmental performance rating, the new structure will be naturally ventilated and feature solar shading panels to carefully control temperature levels within the building. The external facade will blend seamlessly with the recently redeveloped parts of the college and features extensive areas of curtain walling, cedar wood and insulated cladding panels. A large externals package sees ISG form a new entrance into the college to reduce the impact of traffic within the local area, as well carrying out a range of hard and soft landscaping finishes and providing secure bicycle storage facilities.

The key to a successful project is the genuine collaborative effort of all parties involved. Through early engagement and working in partnership with our supply chain, we can address key performance requirements for health, safety, environment, employment and other CR matters.
Our supply chains are created both at a Group and a regional level. Our size and buying power allows us to negotiate national supply agreements for base materials, whilst at a regional level our subcontractor supply chains tend to be more specialist and closely linked to the operations of our various companies and divisions.
We have a quarterly Group procurement forum which is attended, amongst others, by three Divisional procurement managers and a newly appointed Group Procurement Manager. This supplements three Divisional procurement forums that also meet quarterly. As well as identifying where the needs of each Division coincide and ensuring we do not miss any opportunities, these forums will provide a focus to drive CR-related supply chain issues.
