Kent College, Canterbury

The governors of Kent College invited Abbott Construction to tender for refurbishment, alteration and new build to upgrade their existing site to modern day standards. Abbott Construction worked closely with the school's Architects Lee Evans Partnership along with the structural engineers Holt & Wotton in arriving at a cost that provided value for money. The projects have ranged in value from £50,000 to £750,000 and we have been working in partnership with Kent College and the professional team for over 2½ years. During this time we have all worked together to provide results which have imposed minimal interference with the day to day activities of the school

The works carried out at the College have comprised: -

• The refurbishment of 4 classrooms to provide new Physics and Science teaching facilities and to integrate the Library within the main School building.
• Provision of a medical centre with quiet rooms, ward facilities and interview rooms
• Construction of a new 12 classroom teaching block
• Conversion of the existing dormitory block to a state of the art library.
• Alterations to provide additional classrooms and music centre following the relocation of the old library
