Goodson Associates was appointed as part of the design team to design the brand-new Bertha Park High School on the outskirts of Perth through the HUB process. The new 13,000 sq. ft. building is located within the new ‘village’ of Bertha Park to the north of Perth and serves to be a focal point for the new Community. The building itself provides an element of Civic presence and takes the form of a three-storey building and includes a physical education wing with leisure facilities to be used by the local community. This school is reputed to be the first ‘new’ catchment High School within Scotland for 30 Years.

The structure comprises a steel framed, concrete holorib slab solution. A high degree of co-ordination with the architect was required to ensure that an efficient layout plan could then be produced to suit the characteristics of the material and deliver an economic solution.
