With this information in mind I have concentrated my search for a suitable site around the around the facilities for Sheffield Hallam University.
Psalter Lane Campus site......
Broomhill Road site....
Following my site feasiblity studies I seem to be moving towards a new Autism research and assessment centre. This build type would be part of the University providing assessment, research and the facilities for the post graduate course. The assessment centre would cater for the whole of Sheffield and could even act as a blue print for other cities, forming a national network dedicated to improving the research into Autism Spectrum Disorders.
I envisage that teacher training courses would utilise the building throughout the summer providing local teachers with the necessary training and management skills required, raising the 22% national average.
This would also allow me to test my theory of producing a building that is able to manage the symptoms of Autism by using the symptoms of autism....
