Redeveloped under the Building Schools for the Future programme, the design takes influence from the history of the community. The main entrance reflects the duality of the community. The solid, industrial mining heritage of Bolsover is represented by a massive grey monolithic “bookend” solidly anchoring the building into the ground on the left hand side of the entrance, looking back to the recent history of the town and the area. On the right hand side, the entrance doors are set into a double height glazed atrium which gives views into the courtyard. The eye is led into the courtyard by the bright, burnt orange soffit, wrapping around the entrance and flowing across the atrium ceiling and into the cloister.
