Upon completion, North Chadderton Secondary School will have new facilities added to its learning environment.

Kier has committed to employ 50% local people and will appoint 18 local direct employees throughout the project’s duration.

In addition, the construction firm has agreed to provide 16 hours given to support young people into work, as well as allocate 124 hours to local school and college visits. It has also agreed to give 187 weeks to local apprentices.

Kier Construction North and Scotland regional director Sean Fenner said: “We are delighted to be starting works to develop the current footprint at North Chadderton School for Oldham Council.

“The new and improved learning environments will help to inspire pupils and the project provides modern facilities which will remove barriers to learning and increase the likelihood of children and young people realising their full potential.

“This scheme builds on our extensive experience in the North West, where we have recently delivered over £36m worth of secondary education facilities in the last two years, including the Queensferry Pupil Referral Unit in North Wales.”
