Midlothian Council’s new 1200 pupil Newbattle High School reached financial close on Friday 12 February 2016. The new school will be built and serviced by Hub South East Scotland under a 25 year hub/DBFM/PPP contract.
We supported Midlothian Council’s internal team throughout the process. Services included assistance with the ‘Key Stage Review’ submissions to government, analysis and interrogation of the financial model and its underlying assumptions, and liaison with the technical to ensure that the payment mechanism and termination clauses were in line with current practice.
