Better Learning Environments

Welcome! I am Eddie Welham founding partner of Education Design Partnership (EDP). I am an interior designer and university lecturer, and I am seriously passionate about creating better learning environments.

I share this passion with Paul Harrison (M&E), Michael Moran (SE), Ben Clarkson (QS), and Clive Welham (Architect). Having met through delivering school refurbishment projects, we learnt that the traditional method of procurement for schools to design, tender, and build had become overly difficult and expensive.

The Education Design Partnership are a multi-disciplinary design team who assist school and college leaders with new build and refurbishment projects using traditional procurement routes allowing projects to be competitively tendered.

Competitive Tendering

Design and Build Contracts often stop schools from being able to take control of the design process. Making alterations to unsuitable designs become difficult and expensive.

We believe that competitively tendered projects present the best value for money for academies and allow professional designers to work for you directly, ensuring your objectives are aligned with theirs.

Testimonials

"We have worked with EDP on a number of traditionally tendered projects around our academy facilities. We have always found the team professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and trustworthy.

We have completed building work both through traditional contracts and design & build contracts, and found that traditionally tendered building works delivered the buildings we needed at the most competitive price.

We are currently using the team again on another project."
