3. Westminster Academy at The Naim Dangoor Centre
A new secondary school in West London, housing 1,175 pupils and 128 staff members. The principal had a powerful vision of learning for her school embracing new thinking in education and the ideals of the RSA Curriculum of the 21st century. The building is a creative, engaging environment that uses connectivity and flexibility to provide pupils with a place where they take individual responsibility for their education and encourages team working by both staff and pupils. The bold, stratified façade of green and yellow terracotta tiles provides a dramatic new landmark for the community.
