Join Women in Property for an Exclusive Site Visit to the New Blessed Carlo Acutis School, Merthyr Tydfil.

Willmott Dixon will start the morning with a presentation, followed by a tour of the site. Light refreshments will be provided.

The work to build the new Catholic School in Merthyr Tydfil started in October 2024.  The school will be made up of 525 full-time primary school places, 63 full-time equivalent nursery places and 600 secondary school places. Blessed Carlo Acutis Catholic School is currently operating across four separate sites – St Aloysius campus, St Illtyd’s campus, St Mary’s campus, and Bishop Hedley campus and these are made up of the Catholic primary schools and a Catholic secondary school.

The new-build project will create a new state-of-the-art school building for BCA on the current Bishop Hedley campus allowing the school to operate on a single site. The new £52m development will cover 8,840 square metres and the aim is that it will be net zero in operation when it’s completed in the summer of 2027.  This facility will provide exceptional learning facilities for students across the borough from the ages of 3 to 16. The secondary element will include a range of classrooms including languages, humanities, art and design, science and computer laboratories as well as a drama studio and hall.

Please Note: The site visit requires that you wear sturdy footwear.  If you have your own hard hat and hi-vis vest, please also bring those with you.  The site team will provide hats and vests for those that do not.

Members and non-members of all genders are welcome to attend.
