22nd January 2015
Paul Cotter, Jodie Terry, Kezia Pearce, Gloria Double and Harry Williams from Fox met with representatives from EC Harris, Soilfix, Galliford Try and RBKC.
Soilfix is the contractor that has been appointed to remove the bank and make good the site in readiness for construction. They are an award winning contractor that specialises in remediation of contaminated soils and groundwater on brownfield sites. They have proposed the scheduling of a presentation to Fox parents to demonstrate their capability in this area and the methodology they use for ensuring the safety of children at the school.

Galliford Try is the contractor that has been selected to carry out the construction of the new building and renovations of the existing building. They have played a major role in delivering some of the UK's most high profile and innovative schemes including for the London Olympic and Paralympic games. They have extensive experience in the construction of schools.

Following this initial meeting about timing and phasing of work we will have a workshop in the next couple of weeks for the school, contractor and governors to discuss the phasing of construction in order to minimise the disruption to teaching an learning. It is anticipated that a final plan for this phasing will be available in the next two months.
The planning application was submitted on the 21st January. An initial clearance of light vegetation (for example, ivy) on the bank will commence over the half term.
