Development and Expansion

The chance to build new schools and colleges or to refurbish old ones is a huge opportunity. It can also be very complicated.

Having recently advised on the creation of a free school from scratch, we are delighted to offer the expertise of our specialist construction, planning and environmental lawyers to assist with any major capital projects including:

negotiating the legal and funding documents with the Department for Education and local authorities
assisting you through the planning application and appeals process
drafting and negotiating the construction agreements with developers and subcontractors, and advising on any disputes under the construction agreement.
