Quietstone were proud to be selected to design and supply acoustic panels for the foyer of the new STEM center at Cadbury Sixth Form College. The £6.6 million STEM campus building was opened early in 2024 with their robot dog (Toto) unveiling the sign.
Responding to a growing demand for specialist teaching facilities and learning for students the 1,000 sqm, two-storey STEM centre supports the education of young people looking to enter careers in advanced manufacturing, life sciences and other critical sectors of the economy. Funded by the Department for Education and the College it houses dedicated suites for Digital Media, Health, Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Employee Engagement. Digital learning labs and VR suites offer robotics and coding opportunities for new T Level and A Level courses, alongside a media suite, a practical healthcare learning space, extended classrooms and flexible study and social spaces. The project marks Phase 2 of our multi-year investment following the opening of our £3.5 million Science City facilities in 2021.
Speller Metcalfe were the main contractor on the project. They worked with the college’s construction students throughout the project using the build as a learning tool.
