The new hub provides a vocational learning environment for young people with complex educational and emotional needs

Loader Monteith with Studio SJM have completed a new vocational learning centre on the 35-acre Harmeny Education Trust estate, southwest of Edinburgh. 

Harmeny Learning Hub caters to students with complex additional support needs stemming from early years trauma and adversity. The project aims to extend services to individuals aged 14-18, introducing a hands-on technology, arts, and design curriculum.

The centre also seeks to support disadvantaged youth in the broader community by offering activities geared towards imparting practical career skills for future employment.

Matt Loader, director at Loader Monteith said “Harmeny provides an exceptional level of care and support to its students, who we hope will thrive in this new learning environment that is focused on their learning requirements, their backgrounds, and their future development.
