St Paul’s College is a Catholic specialist school for children with intellectual, physical, profound multiple and sensory disabilities. In just six months, we needed to transform a compact, rundown, vacant school into a nurturing, adaptable, state-of-the-art facility.

The much loved central Discovery Centre incorporates open space for small and large cohorts of teachers and specialists, a bespoke library space, and a 21st Century Sensory Room using state-of-the-art LUMES light panels that students can interact with or program.

We’re most proud of the message our new campus sends students and families when they arrive each day: you are highly valued and deserve the best environment possible in which to spend each school day.
