CIOB members in Rugby took a behind-the-scenes tour of Stepnell’s school build in Rugby in April.
Houlton Primary school is a landmark education project that is setting new benchmarks in sustainable design and construction. Attendees saw first-hand how low‑carbon design choices are being brought together to create a modern learning environment.
Key highlights included a low‑carbon CLT structure, complemented by timber features and natural finishes, alongside high‑performance composite windows designed to enhance energy efficiency. The building is also equipped with Air Source Heat Pumps, providing efficient, low‑carbon heating and supporting long-term sustainability goals.
