Ibstock Place school

Built

Jack Hobhouse

Re-imagining the grand tradition of the banqueting hall, the refectory at Ibstock Place School provides an uplifting space for the celebration of communal school life for pupils aged four to 18.

NEW LONDON AWARDS 2021

Winner in the LEARNING category and shortlisted for the WELLBEING Prize
Designed to provide a warm and welcoming dining experience for pupils aged four to 18, large open spaces are paired with carefully scaled annexes for smaller groups and a 'secret' sixth form study. A cloister running the full length of the building opens to an established orchard and offers a connection back to the original manor house in which the school was established. Timber linings, natural light and garden views complete a calm, contemplative space.
