Dear Sirs,

Edinburgh Schools PPP Phase 2 Schools (the "Phase 2 Schools")
Oxgangs Primary School

I refer to the letter which has been provided by Goodson Associates who are the structural engineers instructed by Galliford Try in relation to the remedial works which have been carried out following the wall collapse at Oxgangs Primary School.

Under separate cover, Goodson Associates has provided assurances in respect of the remedial works undertaken across the Phases 2 Schools.

We can confirm that the agreed remedial works have been completed to the requisite standard.

In addition, in response to a request from The City of Edinburgh Council to Edinburgh Schools Partnership to provide confirmation regarding the structural integrity of the remainder of the main structure of the Phase 2 Schools, Galliford Try has conducted an extensive visual inspection to check for signs of structural distress or movements.

Having conducted such an inspection in relation to this school, I can confirm that I found no such signs of structural distress or movement and as a result, it is my view that it is reasonable for both Edinburgh Schools Partnership and the city of Edinburgh Council to assume that, from a structural perspective, the school is safe for normal occupation.
