£59m Maybole Community Campus to open to pupils in August

WORK on the £59 million Maybole Community Campus is progressing well, South Ayrshire Council has said.

Being delivered by hub South West Scotland on behalf of the local authority with Morgan Sindall as main contractor and BDP Architects leading the design, the campus will be home to Carrick Academy, Culzean Primary & Early Years Centre, and St Cuthberts Primary in August.

The build of a swimming pool is to be completed later this year and will open to the public in January 2024, allowing the schools to settle in before the local community access the site.

The second all-weather pitch is ahead of schedule and should be complete before Christmas, the council said. Demolition of the old Carrick Academy building will start after the schools move into the new building, with the whole project set for completion in June next year.
