Tyne Community Learning Trust CIF Funded Projects

The nine schools within Tyne Community Learning Trust (TCLT) became academies in September 2019 and d3associates were initially commissioned to undertake a high level condition survey to identify urgent major refurbishment projects that would be appropriate for an application to the Condition Improvement Fund (CIF).

TCLT were successful with five submissions and instructed d3associates to project manage the works. With only three weeks to the school summer holidays, due to the late announcement of the awards, contractors had to be appointed speedily. d3associates worked closely with the Trust, schools and contractors to ensure the works started on time and managed the contracts through to completion during the six week school holiday.

d3associates are continuing to work with the Trust and have submitted further successful CIF applications. Architectural and engineering design services for urgent structural remedial works have also been supplied.
