Moulsecoomb Primary SuDS in Schools

Where

The courtyard garden at Moulsecoomb Primary School was well used by pupils but had become tired and a maintenance burden for the school. Access was restricted and the space had not been well planned out.

The Aquifer Partnership (TAP) partnered with Moulsecoomb Primary School to renovate the courtyard space to a beautiful water-friendly garden with emphasis on education and play opportunities.

TAP was established to protect and improve the quality of groundwater in the Brighton Chalk Block as a valuable natural resource. See wearetap.org.uk for more information.

Moulsecoomb Primary School was chosen to be part of TAP’s SuDS in Schools programme as it is in a source protection zone, close to an extraction borehole, and in an area prone to flooding.
