St Mary's College, part of the Derry Schools Project, responds to the College's desire to 'open up the building'.  A courtyard has been introduced to the centre of the scheme to ensure that circulation to all levels of the scheme are light and airy.  The new scheme is a compact, efficient development.

Classroom and teaching spaces are wrapped around the large volume serviced spaces in the centre and additional flexibility is created by locating the gym and multi-purpose hall back-to-back.
