Napier University
Balfour Beatty has won the contract to build a new campus for Edinburgh's Napier University. The Sighthill campus redevelopment is part of the university's £100m estates strategy. The development will provide a new building for the Faculty of Health, Life and Social Sciences and will be key to the delivery of a *3 Faculty 3 Campus* strategy in Edinburgh.
Some of the Balfour team have used Priority1 previously at Victoria and Stobhill hospitals and were keen to adopt the same system again on this project.
The Thomas Deacon Academy is one of the Government's flagship academy projects. Built by contractors Laing O'Rourke to a design by Foster and Partners and Buro Happold, the academy's construction began in June 2005, and it opened to students in September 2007. The academy houses approximately 2,200 students ranging from ages 11–18 and was built on the site of Deacon's School in Queen's Gardens, Dogsthorpe.
