The new Winchburgh Campus near Edinburgh is Deanestor’s 12th project for Morrison.

It was built by the contractor on behalf of West Lothian Council and their delivery partner, Hub South East Scotland. It has provided two new secondary schools, a primary school with an early years facility, and a sports and wellbeing hub.

Deanestor fitted out over 340 rooms across the campus and manufactured furniture from its education solutions range.

The contract included the provision of over 300 base cabinets, 940m of white laminate worktops, over 1km of adjustable shelving, 16 teaching walls, 215 resource storage units, as well as write-on teaching aids, shoebox storage units, and wall cupboards.

David Wright, Construction Manager at Morrison Construction, said: “Deanestor performed really well at each stage of this project – pre-construction, programme scheduling, and project management. The quality of the furniture they manufactured was excellent, and the client and teaching staff are delighted with the new campus.

“This project follows Deanestor’s successful delivery of the furniture and fitout contract at Barony Campus and good relationships with their team have been fostered on both of these large-scale schemes. We appreciate their transparent and collaborative approach and good communications, which build trust. We see Deanestor as a market leader and look forward to working on future projects.”

Lawrence Fitzpatrick, Leader of West Lothian Council, said, “I am astounded by the quality of the facilities here at Winchburgh and am delighted with the buildings that have been completed and handed over to us. The growth and development at Winchburgh is going to have such a positive impact on the local community for generations to come.”

The £62m development is West Lothian Council’s largest ever investment in education facilities and is required to serve the growing community in the core development area of Winchburgh.
