Attica Schools

Funded through an innovative finance structure combining funding from the European Investment Bank (EIB), the National Bank of Greece (via the JESSICA* UDF fund) and Alpha Bank, the €58 million project is the first schools PPP project in Greece providing 14 school units spread across the Attica region, totalling approximately 54,000sqm and hosting more than 3,500 students.

We originally provided due diligence services to the lenders – EIB and the JESSICA UDF Fund - before acting as lenders’ technical advisor and independent certifier, overseeing the construction phase of the developments.

Now that the schools have gone live, the team will monitor the facilities management and life cycle costing of the finished buildings for a further three year period.

The building infrastructure accommodates public schools of nursery, primary and secondary education, plus two technical colleges.
