There are several pieces of essential
maintenance and survey work that needs to be carried out at Bankside. We
have worked with the contractors to schedule this work towards the beginning of
the Easter Vacation so as to minimise disruption in the run up to
exams. We appreciate that it will still cause inconvenience but we hope that
by scheduling the work like this we can minimise
disruption.

Following
the testing work in the communal areas this week the engineers will be
