Implementation
• HEFCE bid: SHEW & Quad £7.5m
• Fundraising target: £20m
• SHEW can only provide 60% of previous space
• Listed Building restrictions: no new partitions. Sharing is the only option.
• Change Management!
• (And allocating more space in the lower floors to student use…)
Planning Principles
• Everyone treated the same(no exceptions based on rank or length of tenure)
• No perceived grades of spatial quality (e.g. window work places and internal workplaces)
• Demonstrate an improvement in accommodation(e.g. staff do not expect to lose both privacy and
space)
• Maximum collocation of School of Law functionsgood for community and communication
• Encourage more staff to work from and in the School of Law for more of the time
Acceptance.
