Exciting Developments at Sydenham High
After a thorough and collaborative process with the GDST, Lewisham Council, and our design, architectural, and construction teams, we are delighted to announce that our plans are progressing well.
From the start of this Spring term, all staff and pupils have been using the new access gate on Amberley Grove as part of the transition to the next phase of development. These arrangements will remain in place until the building work is completed. Hoarding information will be displayed by February, with construction set to follow shortly thereafter.
We look forward to seeing how this transformative project will enhance our school. We sincerely appreciate the continued understanding and support of our community and neighbours, both so far and in advance.
Our contractor, Beard, will work closely with us to ensure smooth progress, and we will regularly update this page to keep everyone informed. Should you have any questions, please contact us at , and our team will be happy to assist.
Thank you once again for your patience and understanding. While we acknowledge this is a lengthy process, we remain committed to minimising disruption wherever possible.
Letter to Our Neighbours
As you are aware, Sydenham High School is undertaking a significant project to transform our facilities and create a more purposeful learning environment for our pupils. We are incredibly grateful for your continued support and understanding throughout this process.
Please click here for the latest newsletter from our construction partner, Beard, who will be keeping us updated as the project progresses.
To ensure the smooth running of both the school day and the construction work, we have provided clear guidance to our parents and visitors to avoid parking or driving down Amberley Grove. This is to prevent congestion and ensure the safety of pupils, staff, and members of the public.
To support this, staff are stationed every morning and evening at the access gates and the top of the road to encourage good practice. A senior member of staff will also be present at the gate during these times.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us at . We will immediately raise any concerns with Beard to ensure they are addressed promptly.
Thank you again for your ongoing support.
Best wishes,
Sydenham High School GDST
