Alleyn’s School 
We're excited to tell you more about Project Crucible. Check this page for the latest information on our public pre-application consultation for the project.
We’ve been working with the award-winning architects Allford Hall Monaghan Morris Ltd to design a new building, that will be known as The Crucible, to replace ageing facilities on our site.
The plans involve the demolition of the existing dining hall, pictured here, which fronts on to Hillsboro Road. It was built in the 1960s, is showing its age and no longer serves the needs of a modern school. So, we intend to replace it with a new modern, sustainable, and well-designed building.
This will allow us to create better facilities and improve the school’s environmental performance, which is one of our driving missions. A modern building will reduce energy use and lower carbon emissions, and it will be built using the most sustainable materials available to us.
We are also proposing some other minor changes to the campus that we will explain in upcoming neighbour sessions.
Alleyn's School has been an educational cornerstone in Dulwich for over 400 years, 150 of which have been on Townley Road. Our school grounds, and how we run things is ever evolving. From long term investment decisions, to working with local council on changes beyond the gates; we want to keep you in the loop and give you the platform to have your say.
Ahead of submitting a planning application to the London Borough of Southwark, we are consulting the local community on our proposals, which is why we have organised three pop-up sessions for the following times:
You can register to attend by registering here. If you would like to sign up for an update on the project, please email [email protected] with the subject ‘Project Crucible’.
The information boards displayed at the drop-ins, a feedback form, and a series of frequently asked questions, will be uploaded to this website on Monday 8th December. This will allow you to view the proposals, if you cannot attend one of the drop-in sessions, and provide your feedback directly.
Alleyn’s School remains committed to working in partnership with our community, as evidenced by our Neighbours Advisory Group. We remain committed to publishing and consulting on any proposed planning application before it goes to Southwark Council for approval.
