GALLIFORD TRY APPOINTED TO GBP7BN GOVERNMENT EDUCATION FRAMEWORK
AND GBP55M GALASHIELS CAMPUS PROJECT
Galliford Try, one of the UK's leading construction groups,
announces that it has been appointed to the GBP7bn Department for
Education 2021 Construction Framework, and separately a new GBP55m
contract to build the Galashiels Community Campus on behalf of
Scottish Borders Council and Hub South East.
Galliford Try has been appointed to eight lots of the new
four-year framework, covering all regions of England. The framework
is the main procurement vehicle for new school buildings within
England including through the School Rebuilding Programme and Free
Schools programmes. The previous four-year framework was worth

existing site to create a facility that will accommodate over 1,000
pupils. The project will feature extensive landscaping that will
enable more of the park to return to public access.
Bill Hocking, Chief Executive of Galliford Try, said: "Education
is very much a key sector for our business and a major part of how
we intend to deliver our Sustainable Growth Strategy. We look
forward to partnering with the Department for Education once again,
helping them to deliver net zero carbon schools as part of the 2021
framework and achieve their sustainable education estate.
"Additionally, our Morrison Construction business has an
exceptional record in creating education campuses throughout
Scotland and we are delighted to have been chosen by Scottish
Borders Council and Hub South East for the exciting Galashiels
project."
