An extensive refurbishment at Radcliffe School in Milton Keynes features more than 360 Monaframe casement windows and 45 Stormframe high performance doors.

Based on a 50-acre site, the once grammar, now mixed comprehensive school, dates back to the 1950's and accommodates 1300 students in two separate buildings, which are both named after previous headmasters, Morgan Hall and Orchard Hall. Morgan Hall, the older of the two buildings, is where the majority of the renovation work has taken place.

Renovation to the 38-year old school was made possible through the Government's 'New Deal for Schools' initiative which has enabled schools, such as Radcliffe to undertake long-overdue building maintenance work.

Milton Keynes Council specified the Monaframe system because of Sapa's experience in providing fenestration to the local authority sector, and, in particular, schools.
The versatility and proven use of the Monaframe system were also key reasons why it was selected for the £800,000 fenestration project. Sapa fabricator Hazlemere Windows won the contract for the installation of the windows and doors.
