Neilston Learning Campus is part of a wider regeneration project for the village of Neilston. The new learning hub, designed by BDP, brings the existing Neilston Primary, St. Thomas’s RC Primary and Madras Family Centre together under one roof, providing the village with a meaningful space for community interaction. The building and surrounding landscape design is inspired by feedback received from pupils, staff, parents and the wider community, creating a rich, adaptive and inclusive learning environment – from small, cosy nooks for solo learning and a mountain top for everyday assemblies to a hands-on workshop space called the ‘Exploratorium’, where all ideas can be tested and put into practice.
