Ysgol Bro Alun, Wrexham

Read Construction

This construct only project extended the teaching provision at Ysgol Bro Alun in response to increased demand for Welsh medium education in the local area. Designed and constructed by local organisations, the project matched the existing teaching ‘wing’ in its steel frame construction with standing seam roof and external architectural wall panels.

Delivered in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, there were multiple challenges to overcome to ensure maximum benefits to the local community were achieved.

Despite these challenges, Read worked collaboratively with the client and local support agencies to deliver targeted and location relevant, long-term benefit.
