Tiger Way

An innovative mixed-use development delivering a high-quality new primary school and nursery funded through the sale of 89 high quality private residential apartments co-located on site.

Tiger Way is an education-led mixed-use scheme delivering a high-quality school co-located with residential apartments. The project was delivered via a cross-funding model, with private sale apartments helping to fund the school. The challenge was to provide an excellent learning environment, maximising playspace whilst balancing the need of the residential units. The hybrid building provides school and residential uses at different roof levels. The combined footprint made more efficient use of the site without compromising. The project achieved BREEAM Outstanding at design and construction stage, it won a BREEAM Award in 2018 and was shortlisted again this year.

Tiger Way is an education-led mixed-use scheme, which has delivered a high-quality new primary school and nursery co-located with equally high- quality residential apartments. The mixed-use scheme enables a significant reduction in CO2 emissions by utilising an efficient shared CHP heating system and on-site photovoltaics on the roof of the residential towers to avoid overshadowing. The energy strategy on Nightingale Primary School promotes passive design features such as natural ventilation, excellent fabric efficiency and exposed thermal mass, with glazing and openable windows sized to provide good daylight levels and effective overheating control. To ensure daylight throughout, school classrooms have ‘chimney’ vents to roof levels providing natural light to the classrooms.
