Tveiterås school is a combined primary and secondary school, and is the only special school in Bergen municipality for pupils with severe learning difficulties/mental disabilities who need specially adapted teaching facilities. The school accepts pupils from grades 1 to 10 and is specially adapted for pupils with autism. The current school building is outdated, and also has a design that is unsuitable for wheelchair users. The new building will be approximately 3,500 m2 across two floors, and will be a school that respects the landscape and users.
"We’re looking forward to getting started on the pre-project for the new Tveiterås school, and in partnership with Bergen municipality we will provide a modern, functional and good school for pupils and staff. Building good schools is one of the most meaningful things we as a contractor can do, especially this school for pupils who perhaps most need a well-adapted learning environment” says district manager Erlend Bygnes of Veidekke Bygg Bergen.
The first thing to take place at the site is to demolish the current building. This will start in the new year, and will be followed by a construction period with planned completion during the spring of 2023.
