The company is about to start Phase 2, Tranche 2 of the framework after completing the construction of 13 schools in the first tranche of activity.
Work is set to start imminently on the new £4.8 million Carstairs Village Primary School campus on Avenue Road as well as the new £4.6 million Carstairs Junction Primary School on Coronation Street.
