The Brief

St John Fisher Catholic High School was founded in 1950 to provide quality education to young people aged between 11 and 16 in the centre of Wigan. The school plays a huge part in its local community, and has produced star athletes, including international rugby star, Owen Farrell.

To continue to deliver exemplary education opportunities for its students, the school’s four aging buildings were all in need of replacement. Selected as one of fifty schools in the first stage of the Department for Education’s new School Rebuilding Programme, a full new school is being built on site, with construction commencing in Summer 2022.

Estimated to complete in Spring 2025, throughout the 2.5 year build programme, the staff and students at the school needed a first-class, temporary decant facility to enable ongoing learning. Pace and minimal disruption were both absolutely critical.
