Countesswells Primary School

Contract type – Design & Build

Construction is under way on the first new primary school for Countesswells on behalf of Aberdeen City Council.

Work began in October 2021 with Morrison Construction as our main contractor. The architects are Halliday Fraser Munro.

Around 3,000 homes are being constructed on the western outskirts of the city as part of a council master plan and new schools are needed for the influx of families.

The Countesswells primary school will cater for 434 pupils with an additional 60 early learning and child care places. It will also have an all-weather pitch and two playgrounds.

Countesswells is one of four new schools being planned by Aberdeen City Council.
