Ormiston Park Academy gets planning permission

Planning has been approved for Nicholas Hare Architects' design for the new Ormiston Park Academy with Balfour Beatty.

This will be an "Academy in the Park" celebrating the Academy's green ethos and the very special landscape - the site of an historic Capability Brown park - in which it is to be built. The building massing is deliberately evocative of a typical country house arrangement and the landscape design develops this metaphor further.
