Project Overview

Discover how we created an innovative educational environment that fosters creativity, collaboration, and academic excellence for young learners.

Omnia MEP Design was appointed by Arcadis to deliver the full mechanical and electrical services design for a new build extension at St Cuthbert's Catholic Primary School in Wigan. The project formed part of a strategic expansion to accommodate growing pupil numbers and enhance the school's facilities with modern, energy-efficient infrastructure.

Working from early design stages through to completion, our team developed a fully coordinated M&E solution that supports comfort, safety, and long-term performance—tailored to the operational needs of a busy primary school.

All systems were designed to meet current Building Regulations and Department for Education performance standards, with careful attention to spatial coordination, installation efficiency, and long-term maintainability.

Sustainability and Performance

The extension achieved an EPC A-rating, reflecting Omnia's commitment to low-carbon design and energy-efficient building services. The integration of PV technology and high-efficiency systems supports reduced energy consumption, lower running costs, and long-term environmental benefit for the school.

Supporting Education Through Design

Our contribution helped deliver a safe, comfortable, and future-ready learning environment—supporting staff and pupils with reliable building services that enhance day-to-day operations and long-term resilience.

This project reflects Omnia's continued commitment to delivering high-quality M&E design in the education sector, where performance, compliance, and user experience are key to supporting learning outcomes and community value.
