The plan has two bold curves connected by the double-height entrance hall. The two-storey classroom block wraps around the playground with covered external activity spaces on both levels. The building is clad in yellow London stock bricks and aluminium standing seam cladding and roof covering. The external escape stair on the gable end is hung from the roof purlins with steel rods.
