Bam has got the all-clear to start building a major Scottish passivhaus school project in Fife.
The £88m school, which is being delivered by hub East Central Scotland, is scheduled to open in 2026 and will replace the existing Inverkeithing High.
Being built on the former Rosyth Fleet Grounds, South West Fife High School will have capacity to accommodate around 1,800 pupils, over three floors.
CEO of hub East Central Scotland, Gary Bushnell, said: “Designing and building the school to Passivahus principles ensures that learners will enjoy an environment that is full of natural light and with exceptional comfort standards.
“The facility will benefit from comfortable even temperatures and a constant supply of fresh air, while energy consumption is optimised to reduce carbon and running costs. This makes a significant contribution to meeting the Council’s net zero carbon ambition.”
