From the architect. St John Bosco Arts College is a new build secondary 1,100 place

Catholic girls school in Croxteth, Liverpool.

The new school is housed in a 91m x 55m three storey single span column free

environment, which contains an exciting mix of learning environments and social spaces,

focusing on a sculpted landscape at the heart of the school.

With a budget of just 1043/sqm the response uses a simple efficient building form whichdelivers 15% more area than the traditional BB98 school, allowing for greater flexibility to

create both transformational and inspirational spaces.

Colour, graphics and clever internal planning to minimise circulation space and allowing for

multiple functions, have created a unique response to the schools identity and sense of

place in its community.
