    Wooster Jeffs Associates Building Services Consulting Engineers Education Education Today’s climate demands education facilities which are cost effective, delivered on time and on budget. Educational buildings need to be versatile and capable of being used for multipurpose activities. We believe this can be achieved through good planning, forward thinking, client and design team interaction and careful consideration of the finished scheme. Services Provided Ÿ Concept design Ÿ Feasibility studies Ÿ Preliminary engineering Ÿ Detailed design Ÿ Project management Ÿ Cost management Ÿ Energy surveys Ÿ Condition surveys At Wooster Jeffs Associates we pride ourselves Ÿ Technical reports on designing appropriate services and exceptional education facilities to meet the de- mands of the users and aid in providing a com- fortable and stimulating environment for both staff and pupils The building services elements within education premises account for a large proportion of the overall capital costs and running costs and, as such, need to be designed carefully to provide an energy efficient scheme which is well coordinated with the building’s structure and other services, whilst still striving to provide a striking aesthetic look. Good Design Principles Wooster Jeffs Associates provide full electrical, mechanical and public health design as well as management services to meet the modern building services environment. Our design engineers have a wealth of experience within the education sector for both public and private schools as well as higher education establishments. Projects are undertaken with an approach not only focusing on good engineering principles, adhering to the relevant legislation and building regulations but also looking at issues such as life cycle costing, future maintenance and sustainability.

    I LEARN TERM 2 FOCUS: LITERACY Friday 6th November 2020 A message from the Headteacher: Our first week back after half term has been a busy one! I’m delighted that the Swindon Youth Literature Festival will be taking place virtually and here at LMA next week. As I said in my letter to all parents and carers yesterday, it is very much business as usual here at Lawn Manor throughout the national lockdown period and we would be delighted to celebrate any positive news stories of successes outside of school in our newsletter, please just contact year leaders or the admin office to let us know. Sandra Muir Headteacher Year 7 Artwork Year 7 art with Miss Townsend Year 7 have been developing their art skills, particularly using pen shading techniques to create bold designs. Over half term, pupils were asked to copy the work of an artist who uses these same techniques in their work. These are some of the amazing art pieces that were handed in. Well done! The Headteacher’s Newsletter Weekly How to contact us: Telephone: 01793 487286 www.lawnmanor.org Attendance: 01793 427749 Student Services: 01793 Email: [email protected] @lawn_manor 427755 Head Lice s We have unfortunately had a report of head lice in the school. Here are a few tips from an NHS website regarding identifying head lice and how to get rid of them, which sometimes takes a few treatments.
