Project Overview

Calderwood Primary School in East Calder, West Lothian, was initially constructed in 2021, with plans for future expansion to accommodate increasing pupil numbers due to the growing development in the local area. This developer-funded expansion increases the school’s capacity from 462 to 693 through an additional 10 classrooms and associated support spaces.

What We Did

Collaborating with Morrison Construction, Pinnacle transformed the extension by placing both loose and fitted furniture across two floors, designed to reflect and enhance the spaces created in the original scheme.

  • Breakout areas:A variety of furniture was installed to create adaptable spaces to meet different needs. This included mobile Kinderbox compartments on castors, a range of upholstered stools and seating options, various table types, and a two-tier modular seating unit to create a mini-Hellerup for teaching.
  • Classrooms:A mix of circular and rectangular tables were paired with Postura Plus chairs providing flexible classroom layouts to support different learning styles. Each classroom also featured a teacherwall with fixed cupboards and large whiteboard panels to encourage organisation and active learning.
  • DHT Office:The Deputy Head Teacher’s office was furnished with ergonomic essentials, including a high-back operator chair, modular seating, an Infinity rectangular workstation, a two-drawer filing pedestal, and an Infinity cupboard for additional storage.
  • Pupil Support / Nurture Room:This supportive space included capacity units with double doors, a sink and oven unit, a stainless steel sink, an under-counter fridge, and a variety of seating options, such as a tub chair, a circular coffee table, a feast panel seat, and a panel table as well as a whiteboard to support teaching and interactive activities.
  • Cloakroom:Designed for functionality, the cloakroom was outfitted with polymer coat hooks, shoebox bench units, and spur shelving to provide organised storage solutions.
