New London Architecture

East London Science School

Proposed

The East London Science School sits alongside a PRS residential development within a wider masterplan that will transform a former industrial site into a new residential neighbourhood.

Running along Stephenson Street, the East London Science School sits within a masterplan that will transform a former industrial site into a residential neighbourhood. The project will accommodate 1,000 pupils and 120 staff, and features specialist labs and dedicated experiment studios. A 275-person lecture theatre will attract international speakers and encourage out-of-hours community events, and a sports wing doubles as a community recreation facility.
