The Department for Education<\/a> (DfE) has chosen Kier<\/a> to deliver a \u00a324.7m project at Dover Grammar School for Boys<\/h2>\n

The project at Dover Grammar School for Boys has been procured through the DfE Construction Framework and is part of the DfE\u2019s Priority School Building<\/a> Programme (PSBP).<\/p>\n

The scheme will include the design and construction of a new four-storey teaching block and attached four-court sports hall, with a two-court multi-use games area and grass football pitch.<\/p>\n

The aim of the Dover Grammar School for Boys project is to provide modern facilities for the 860 pupils and the new building will replace the current building which was constructed in the 1930s.<\/p>\n

To keep some of the history of the old school, Kier is relocating the existing pipe organ, a stained glass window and some historical plaques.<\/p>\n

First-class learning environments<\/h3>\n

Cliff Thomas, managing director at Kier Regional Building London & South East, said: \u201cWe\u2019re pleased to be appointed to deliver this much-needed scheme.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe new building will provide pupils with modern facilities and we look forward to utilising our vast experience in delivering school buildings to create a first-class learning environment<\/a> for all that attend the school.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are also proud of our long-lasting relationship in delivering new educational facilities throughout Kent.\u201d<\/p>\n

The project is due to be completed in summer 2023.<\/p>\n

Kier has recently delivered a number of projects similar to Dover Grammar School for Boys, including Harris Academy Bromley which was part new build and part refurbishment of an existing 900 place all-girls secondary school. This comprised of the construction of a new three-storey building providing classrooms, science laboratories, a library and a sports hall.<\/p>\n
