Morgan Sindall Group plc, the construction and regeneration

for its primary schools estate.
Morgan Sindall will be working alongside two other firms to

modernisation programme which will see all 124 of the area's

Morgan Sindall has proven experience in the education sector in
Scotland and has been working on the earlier phases of the South
Lanarkshire primary schools modernisation programme since 2006. It

currently on site with four others. It has also been working on
North Lanarkshire Council's GBP300 million schools modernisation
framework since February 2009. In addition, Morgan Sindall is
currently completing work on a GBP7.8 million new eco-school in
Dunfermline East for Fife Council.

"This latest framework appointment is testament to the track
record we have developed in the Scottish education market, where we
