PPA Construction Project

The requirement is to provide construction services to Phoenix Park Academy, which is within Wellspring Academy Trust and based in Grimsby. Wellspring Academy Trust (WAT) would like to modernise and redevelop the Park site (which has existing vocational learning) to be able to accommodate larger student numbers (60) in-house with more fit for purpose facilities. This in turn will also bring additional space for learners (20) with SEMH needs that do not fit a more behavioural profile (e.g. anxious / phobic needs) adding crucial and cost effective breadth to our offer. These proposals will allow WAT to educate all pupils in-house, at a materially reduced cost and will significantly enhance the WAT Estate. Wellspring Academy Trust invites tenders for this Construction Project located at; Phoenix Park Academy, Park House, Park Avenue, Grimsby, DN32 0BZ Project value: In the region of £450,000 to 500,000 Scope of Project The Contractor shall provide all labour, goods and materials to complete the construction project.
