Stuartholme School is passionate about providing a learning environment that inspires its students. The 100-year-old grounds and facilities have been carefully and respectfully enhanced to not only cater to the increasing school population but to ensure they promote a desire for educational excellence.
The Stuartholme School Masterplan 2020+ Designing for the Future is the renewed Masterplan future-proofing the facilities and resources of the School.
Stuartholme will undertake the delivery of this Masterplan as a phased approach and the below highlights some of the major works completed, in progress, and planned.
