The St. Mark’s project, Southampton’s first 4-16 all-through school, completed in the winter of 2022. Morgan Sindall, worked with Southampton City Council to deliver the brand new 1,500 place building, which included a pre-school nursery, a two-form entry primary school, and a secondary school. The project team included Faithful & Gould, Architecture PLB, Scott White & Hookins, Vail Williams and landscape by Ubu.

The new all-through school provides children of the local community with a one stop educational hub to learn and develop, whilst supporting Southampton City Council’s wider agenda to address the growing requirement for school places in the area.  It will now provide 900 much needed school places for pupils aged 4 – 16.

Working with Southampton City Council on the project, Morgan Sindall and the project team demonstrated pioneering approaches to social value creation and formed a community-led initiative that will hugely benefit the local area.
