HL designs new Mo Mowlam academy

Durham architects Howarth Litchfield have designed the new Mo Mowlam Academy in Redcar.

The Mo Mowlam Academy, formally known as Pathways School, is operated by the Horizons Specialist Academy Trust (the Trust) and is one of seven schools in the Trust’s portfolio.

Currently catering for up to 70 pupils with social, emotional and mental health needs from its present site in Grangetown, the replacement building allows the Trust to increase its capacity creating much needed space for 100 pupils – 30 primary and 70 secondary. The new facilities also create more dynamic and inspirational learning environments for its pupils, to cater for their many and differing needs.

Also provided are several ICT-rich classrooms, a sensory room, soft play area, small and medium group rooms and a food technology room as well as a library, science and art rooms. Other spaces include calming rooms and breakout spaces for pupils, a sports hall and medical room all set out in a building with a wider than usual circulation space.
