Costain has been appointed by Lewisham Council to rebuild four

Three of the schools (Bonus Pastor Catholic College, Prendergast
Vale College and the new ASD school), with a total capital
expenditure of GBP53 million, will be delivered under a Private
Finance Initiative (PFI) package, giving significant financial
benefits to the Council.
The PFI will be delivered by Learning21, a consortium that

International. The design and construction of the schools is being
undertaken by Costain, while the facilities and ICT services will
be provided by Babcock.
The fourth school, Prendergast Hilly Fields College, will be
delivered through a GBP18 million design and build contract with

management services. All work is due for completion by September
