" Our thanks for being the theme setters, artists, weavers of children's dreams and for the use of colour and ideas throughout the school "

Mike Brown (Architect)

" Our building is absolutely wonderful, a high quality innovative vibrant environment that we now know 'truly' works for our pupils and school. What has pleased me most this last few weeks is seeing the impact on pupils and staff and the way that they have responded to the new opportunities created for learning. Thanks go to Cantoo for their inspirational design " Anne Webster (Headteacher Bushloe High School)

" I am convinced that the involvement of professional interior designers in the entire design process greatly contributed to the overall quality and feel of our new schools. They are quite stunning buildings, and the bold use of colours and finishes developed by the designers have helped produce the 'WOW' factor that we were looking for "

Bob Athroll (Education Client Leicestershire County Council)

" Your cross-school workshops and the design concepts that these generated proved very helpful in bringing the different pupil and staff communities together and generating a sense of ownership for this flagship building. The two storey banner, glazing manifestation and vinyl leaf stream all make a huge visual impact and are a constant reminder of the origins and thinking behind this co-location project. The colour palette and finishes schedule were an important finishing touch to what is a light, spacious and impressive building and in my opinion were significant in blurring the division between old and new which has been a particular triumph here "

Chris Grocutt (Development Officer Staffordshire County Council)

" We have been grateful to be involved in the design right from the outset and believe it is a building that will enable us to translate our aspirations for young people"

Rose Goldberg (Headteacher Gartree HIgh School)
