St Albans School

Proteus Facades has created an aesthetic like no other on the external façade of a new-build mathematics facility at St Albans School in Hertfordshire, through clever use of the manufacturer’s Proteus GL glass cladding panels and digital screen printing facilities.

In recent years the school has experienced a consistently increasing take-up of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) related subjects by pupils. However, it was found that there was a lack of existing, fit-for-purpose space to house and support the growth and teaching of these subjects at the school.

The new Corfield Building at St Albans School replaces a now demolished wooden cabin-like structure to address this need. Designed by PHP Architects and developed by Borras Construction, it includes a bespoke two storey maths facility on the upper ground and first floors along with a Combined Cadet Force (CCF) shooting range and office space within the lower ground floor.
