The Hi-Tech New Facililty Is A One Storey 'Sensory School' That Uses Light, Sound And Touch To Give Tuke Students, Many Who Are In Wheelchairs, The Opportunity To Explore, Find Their Own Way And Develop Their Independence. Inside, Students Can Visit Different Areas Of The School By Following A Touch Trail Built Into The Walls Of The Main Corridor. In Certain Areas Lighting Can Be Changed To Help Students Explore Action And Reaction, Teachers Can Also Change The Atmosphere To Help Their Work With The Students. In The Carefully Designed Outside Play Space, Students Can Enjoy Either Noisy Or Quiet Play On A Variety Of Surfaces And Equipment. The Building Itself Is Highly Sustainable, With A Ground-Source Heat Pump, An Earth Tube, A Sustainable Drainage System And A Sedum-Covered Green Roof.
