Bosworth Academy in Leicestershire has been announced as the winner of a school makeover, to be provided by property support services specialist Styles & Wood.

The Academy nominated its Library and adjoining classrooms for the refurbishment and as part of its application included a video made entirely by students, describing a range of improvements they were keen to see. Styles & Wood will deliver a high-quality refurbishment, which will include: changing the internal layout, creating a designed lighting scheme, installing ventilation, and integrating new technology into the space to create a flexible and stimulating learning environment.

Schools across the country recently had the opportunity to enter the makeover competition to celebrate the launch of Styles & Wood’s dynamic new school space transformation service, “Revision”. Schools submitted drawings, videos and even poems for consideration to support their entries.

Tony Lenehan, Chief Executive at Styles & Wood, said: “Bosworth Academy’s entry genuinely stood out in terms of quality and inventiveness. The student video in particular was inspirational! We are now very much looking forward to turning their makeover dreams into a reality.”

Simon Brown, Vice Principal at Bosworth Academy, said: “Our students are ecstatic to have won the makeover competition. The school is committed to achieving outstanding quality in all that we do and with help from Styles & Wood we are a step closer to achieving that.”

Bosworth Academy was shortlisted alongside Broadgate Primary School in Leeds and Longton Primary School in Preston.
