Lord Williams’s School is delighted to announce that the Groundbreaking ceremony for their new English Teaching building took place on Wednesday 29th June 2022.
The new building was designed by GSS Architecture and Borras has been appointed as the contractor to construct the building.
Ishbel Kenningham, the widow of former Lord Williams’s School Principal David Kenningham, “broke the ground” and the new building will be named in honour of David. Ishbel was accompanied by members of the Kenningham family and the event was witnessed by a number of David’s former colleagues. The Kenningham Building will comprise nine English teaching rooms, a computer room and staff work rooms and offices.
The Kenningham Building is part of an exciting expansion project across both sites of Lord Williams’s School, funded by Oxfordshire County Council. Once complete, the whole project will provide:
