The Rosalind Franklin Wing at St Paul’s Girls’ School officially opens

We’re proud to say that the Rosalind Franklin Wing at St Paul’s Girls’ School is now officially open. A new typology in education architecture, the building was conceived to unlock the potential of the next generation of female innovators and entrepreneurs at one of the UK’s highest-performing schools.

Designed to put creative learning on show and maximise potential for inter-departmental collaboration, the facility’s project-based learning model provides a dynamic and flexible environment where students can develop their creative problem-solving skills, beyond the constraints of siloed subjects.

The building combines sensitive architectural detailing and materials, which allow it to integrate into its historic surroundings, with a sustainable glulam structural frame and ventilation strategy. It forms part of a wider masterplan developed by Jestico + Whiles that will equip SPGS with the facilities needed to continue operating at the forefront of education.
