Arcas Building Solutions is proud to have been awarded a new contract to carry out essential structural repairs at Holy Trinity Church of England Primary School in Berwick-upon-Tweed. This much-loved community school, with a history stretching back nearly 300 years, is preparing for a new chapter as part of Northumberland’s wider education masterplan. Arcas is playing a key role in future-proofing its facilities for generations to come.
School Refurbishment in the Heart of Berwick
Our latest school refurbishment project focuses on restoring and strengthening the school hall, a central space that has hosted countless assemblies, performances, and celebrations over the years. The scope of work includes underpinning the hall walls to improve long-term structural stability, replacing the floor slab, repairing external elevations and window frames, and restoring interior finishes to bring the hall back to its best.
These vital improvements will ensure the building remains safe, durable, and functional, allowing pupils and staff to continue using the hall for many years to come.
Experience in Educational Environments
Arcas Building Solutions has a strong track record of delivering complex school refurbishment projects across the North East. Previous works include extensive upgrades at St Wilfrid’s RC College in South Shields and Haltwhistle Middle School, where our teams successfully managed phased works within live school environments.
Each project highlights our ability to balance quality, safety, and sensitivity while ensuring minimal disruption to the day-to-day running of the school. The result is a consistently high standard of finish and long-lasting improvements that meet the needs of both staff and students.
