Jedburgh Campus Project Reaches Important Milestone
The Scottish Border Council has announced that financial close has been reached on the new Jedburgh Intergenerational Community Campus project.
Although advanced works have already begun on site, as marked by Deputy First Minister John Swinney and school children in June, the main construction works can continue, and the school is on track to be completed by Spring 2020. Works are progressing well on-site, with the completion of the foundations and the start of the erection of the building's steel frame.
The £32m educational facility is being delivered by Hub South East in partnership with Scottish Borders Council and BAM Construction.
Jedburgh Intergenerational Community Campus will replace all three schools in the town, with provision for:
• nursery
• primary
• secondary
• further education
Community facilities will include:
• a multi-use games area
• 2G hockey pitch
• 3G sports pitch
• 100m running track
• external changing pavilion
• rural skills area
