BDP to design new learning and leisure campus in Neilston

Neilston is set to benefit from a learning and leisure campus as East Renfrewshire Council has approved the design and awarded the contract to BDP’s Glasgow studio.The new joint campus design will join Neilston Primary and St Thomas’ Primary on one site, with the addition of the Madras Family Centre, a community library and sports facilities, all located on the site of the existing Neilston Primary School.Consultation with children, parent councils, staff and community groups is underway to ensure the identity, legacy and individual needs of each school will be catered for. The campus is being built to meet growing demand for school places and is phase one of the Neilston masterplan which is part of the longer-term strategy for the regeneration of the village.
