Balfour Beatty will start work early next year on school schemes worth £106m under its BSF deals in Ealing and Oldham.

Balfour Beatty will work with Ealing Council to deliver the new PPP Dormers Wells High School in Southall and will carry out a major refurbishment and partial rebuild of The Cardinal Wiseman Catholic School in Greenford.

The contractor will also work in partnership with Oldham Borough Council to deliver a new PPP Roman Catholic secondary school in Oldham, which will bring together two existing mainstream schools, Our Lady’s and St Augustine’s.

Balfour Beatty will also extensively remodel the North Chadderton school.

Chief Executive, Ian Tyler, said: “These schemes represent significant investments in education in both Ealing and Oldham.

“We look forward to delivering these first-class learning environments for the pupils and their teachers while demonstrating our commitment to the local communities through an employment and skills pledge that will leave a lasting skills legacy.”

As part of Balfour Beatty’s commitment to the local communities of Ealing and Oldham, the firm has pledged an employment and skills package which includes apprenticeships, work placements and curriculum enrichment.
