Text description provided by the architects. Despite the government’s cancellation of over 700 BSF schools, there may still be an alternative for schools looking to develop. In Marlborough, Wiltshire, the governors of St John’s School were informed they were not eligible to receive funding from the government for another 10 years, but despite the news, St John’s did not give up and decided to find the funding elsewhere.

圣约翰要求重新安排加入项目团队，并制定一系列总体规划选项，研究筹集所需资金的其他方法。这一突破是在一小部分未被利用的学校场地被出售，用于开发四所新房子，使学校GB700000取得了进展，并提出了详细的建议。尽管受到当地政界人士的一致反对，该队还是获得了新学校和另外两个住宅开发用地的规划许可。出售这些土地为这所新学校腾出了大部分资金。学校还实施了一项全面的筹资方案，以筹集所需的其余资金。

St John’s asked Re-Format to join the project team and produce a series of master planning options that investigated alternative ways to raise the capital required. The breakthrough came when a small under utilised area of the school grounds was sold for development of four new houses giving the school £700k to progress with detailed proposals. Although faced with concerted opposition from local politicians, the team gained planning permission for the new school and two further residential development sites. The sale of these sites released the bulk of the funds for the new school. The school also implemented a comprehensive fund raising programme to raise the remaining finances required.

这座建筑于2010年竣工，目前容纳了1550多名学生。然而，尽管学校规模庞大，坐落在山顶上，但经过精心设计的整体造型和弯曲的环保刚玉屋顶，这座建筑轻轻地融入了景观之中。

The building was completed in 2010 and now houses over 1550 students. However, despite the substantial size of the school and its location on top of a hill, the careful design of the overall form and the integration of a curved eco-friendly sedum roof nestles the building gently into the landscape.

在学校的形式中，一系列的大口袋被切成一团，创造了一系列宽敞的阳光充足的庭院空间。宽覆盖的外部人行道连接在一起的庭院，同时减少了建筑形式。中心的“胚胎”空间从主屋顶向上升起，为学生形成一个标志性的社会中心，包括一个学习资源中心、一个图书馆和一个中六中心。

Within the form of the school a series of large pockets are cut into the mass creating a sequence of generous sunlit courtyard spaces. Wide covered external walkways link together the courtyards whilst reducing the built form. The central ‘embryo’ space which rises up through the main roof to form an iconic social centre for the students includes a learning resource centre, library and sixth form centre.

总之，学校的管理者们相信，通过单独行动，他们有了一项极具创新性的设计，并且绕过了一些政府采购的官僚机构，节省了数百万英镑。

To conclude, by going it alone the school’s governors are convinced that they have a radically innovative design and have saved millions of pounds on bypassing some of the bureaucracy of government procurement.
