State of the Art Science Labs

Science Labs project

After many years in the planning stages, we are delighted to confirm that the new science lab project will commence this summer. Currently the science labs at The Leigh are spread through the building and are in need of modernising. We have been approved as a provider for the new Health and Science T Level from September 2023 and so will need more specialist space and equipment to deliver this new qualification.

The £1.2 million new science block will have labs designed with purpose fitted furniture and equipment that will allow students at every Key Stage to participate more freely in regular practicals. The increased science prep areas will mean more resources can be readily available for exciting experiments to take place. The science staff are looking forward to be able to be work closely together as they will be able to collaborate and support each other more easily and benefit from their shared experiences This summer will see three new science labs, a science studio, an additional prep room and chemical store, phase two next summer will also see a further lab and science studio added to the configuration. This will ensure that our students have access to the highest quality facilities as they become lead scientists of the future.
