Description

The UoB's Polhill (Bedford) Campus has a long association of teacher training particularly within the 'Primary' age group. To further enhance its estates facilities to assist and equip teachers for the real school environment it now seeks a local landscape partner to construct/install/plant a Forest School.
It is realised that our available budget is limited and hence the need to work with a partner who will
• Design the Forest School
• Be responsible for the delivery
• Have the resources and expertise to construct/renovate/install the major resource intensive structures
• Work with our Campus staff to enable them to undertake the less resource intensive aspects of the project
• Undertake any commissioning required
• Instruct/train staff in managing the project
• Comply with all appropriate H & S and legislative requirements
