Rainbow SEN School


The Rainbow SEN School project involved converting and extending a four-story Victorian villa into a specialist SEN School for children with autism. Specialist provisions include full DDA compliance and the allowance for potential future expansion of the school. The school will cater to fifty students with a ratio of 1:1 teaching staff.

Elementa Consulting provided mechanical, electrical, energy, and public health engineering services for this project, including access control, CCTV, and fire strategy. This project aimed to achieve a very energy-efficient school in terms of sustainability. To achieve this, Elementa has produced energy option appraisals and dynamic thermal modeling to inform design decisions regards the most appropriate building materials, renewable technologies, ventilation strategies, and heating solutions for the scheme.

These measures contributed to the delivery of very energy-efficient school facilities. Sustainable technologies include natural ventilation, solar hot water, energy management metering and recording, and natural daylighting, complimented by low-energy lighting with energy-saving controls considered.
