Construction by Tessa Jowell

Hi all

 

Does anyone know what the construction work next to Tessa Jowell health center is going to be?

It's all part of the ED Charter school.

Do you mean what's left of the hospital building? If so, yes it will be part of the school.

It’s looking very impressive, they’ve done a brilliant job restoring the old building.

They are doing a grand job on renovating the old hospital building.

Looking good.  My office used to be in the left hand block, in what once was Matron's quarters!

[Azalea]

Loved that building.

Agree. So glad they retained all of this, it adds to the area.

Does anyone know what Charter will use this section for?

I think it’s due to hold the school reception/office, drama & music classrooms, a new  library and SEN and autism unit. 
 

It is good they kept the old Chateau building, especially as this isn’t a  listed building, so would have been much quicker to bulldoze the lot. 

 

My kids tell me the Library is due to move in soon so I imagine the whole thing will be functioning by September.
