This was one of the first major Projects for Monodraught Windcatchers completed more than 10 years ago in January 1998. Building Simulation carried out extensive modelling and top Environmental Consultants, Battle McCarthy undertook the original design concepts.
This was a new £12 million school, at the time the largest Contract being undertaken in Jersey and demonstrates how classrooms both on the top and ground floor can be served by the Monodraught systems ducted down through the first floor classrooms. The project shows that a particularly striking application of natural ventilation systems can be achieved with a totally energy free use of natural ventilation operating under extreme conditions due to the extensive use of full height glazing.
