Kingston Grammar School

Below Ground Drainage Design
Kingston upon Thames

The redevelopment of Kingston Grammar School’s Bridgen Science Centre is a bold investment in modern science education, where EGY’s drainage design helps future-proof the school’s infrastructure and support its commitment to sustainability and excellence.

We balanced the competing demands of a constrained, operational and historic site to create resilient, future-ready infrastructure that provided:

85% additional capacity to the existing foul drainage system.
Integrated new infrastructure alongside existing
Rectified all pre-existing drainage defects.
Delivered within strict programme constraints

EGY is proud to support Kingston Grammar School in the redevelopment of its Bridgen Science Centre — a transformative project that reflects the school’s long-standing commitment to academic excellence and a sustainable future.

Founded by Royal Charter in 1561, Kingston Grammar has a rich heritage of nurturing curiosity and innovation. The latest upgrade to its dedicated science facilities brings together state-of-the-art laboratories with a focus on energy efficiency, adaptability, and environmental performance.

Works were designed and phased to align with the academic calendar, allowing works to progress during the holidays but ensuring facilities would be operational when term time re-commenced.

EGY was appointed as civil engineers for the project, delivering the below ground drainage design for the extension, refurbishment, and retrofit of the science centre. Our work involved carefully integrating new infrastructure with the existing network, adding much-needed capacity while ensuring the system is future-proofed for the continued evolution of the school’s campus.
