Design a brand-new all-through School: Inspiring Futures through Learning (IFtL) Glebe Farm Competition.  COMPETITION NOW CLOSED. Thank you for all of your entries. 

ARE YOU CREATIVE, GROUNDBREAKING AND IMAGINATIVE? Are you aspiring to be an artist, architect, a designer? If so, this competition is for you.   

Excitingly, as you may well have heard, IFtL (working closely with 5 Dimensions) have been selected to run the new all-through school in South-East Milton Keynes and will cater for children from Reception through to Year 11 under one roof!  The school will open from September 2022 and will provide places for up to 1,530 children.  It will include sports facilities such as an artificial grass pitch plus provision for a 39-place full-time equivalent (FTE) nursery. 

If you enjoy a project and want to be part of the build and creation of our new school, then this competition is for you.  We would very much like to see your ideas about what an exciting, friendly, dynamic new school should look and feel like for learners in 2022 and beyond!   

You can design a classroom, the entrance hall, outdoor areas, one wall, part of the building, smaller areas or the whole thing.
