Women in Property Outreach Programme

LoadingAdd to my saved searches

Women In Property, the contractor and local authority have partnered together to deliver a construction related school outreach programme to a group of 28 pupils at a local high school.

The programme comprises of 8 weeks, including an intro to the project followed by sessions from a range of different disciplines in architecture, planning, structural and mechanical engineering, client focus, design and quantity surveying.

Across the 8 weeks, pupils worked in small groups to design in theory a new 7 classroom primary school adjacent to their current high school. They had a brief and budget to work from which formed the designed and then that formed the sessions for each week and discipline.

It has been a very well received programme and pupils have worked really positively in collaboration. The final week will see the pupils presenting their
final concept and discussions around lessons learned and how they came up with their ideas.
