They were set a challenge by the Managing Director and Project Managers to design the next data centre in Slough, working with £35 million of a £1 billion budget. The ideas they put forward genuinely impressed the entire team. Among the group, Cash, Julia, and Tanveer stood out for their excellent presentation skills, the creativity of their ideas, their community sustainability plans, and their thoughtful measures to reduce negative environmental impact. They represented themselves and the school exceptionally well. ![](https://churchmead.org/images/1000200953.jpg) ![](https://churchmead.org/images/1000200956(1).jpg) [ MHST Webinars](https://churchmead.org/news/2026-01-14-mhst-webinars) [Ascot Community Challenge ](https://churchmead.org/news/2026-02-04-ascot-community-challenge) ![Churchmead School](https://files.schudio.com/churchmead-school-2/images/logo/logo.png) ### Churchmead School Priory Way Datchet Berkshire SL3 9JQ 01753 211330 01753 580046 ### Useful Links - [Term Dates](https://churchmead.org/termdates) - [Contact Us](https://churchmead.org/contact) - [Office 365](https://login.microsoftonline.com/?whr=churchmead.org) ### Social Media - [Facebook](http://www.facebook.com/ChurchmeadChurchOfEnglandvaSchool) - [Instagram](http://www.instagram.com/churchmead_insta/) ### Translation © Copyright 2026 Churchmead School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://churchmead.org/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
