Thank you very much for your keen interest and support for New Press Advertisement (ECiM). The architect's plans for the Senior School are now complete and building work is under way. A provisional site has also been selected for the Junior School campus, which will open in 2014, with a possible temporary site opening in 2012.

The impressive plans for the Senior School are seen as a major development in the education field in the region. Comprising of complex, ultra-modern and environmentally-friendly buildings, the senior campus construction project requires excellence in planning and execution using materials of the highest quality. Situated within Bandar Enstek, the fast-developing hub for the technology industry and education, ECiM is also dependent on the infrastructure of the immediate surrounding area progressing at the same rate as the Senior School build itself. Following in-depth progress meetings between the Board of Governors, the architects and the construction project management companies for both ECiM and Bandar Enstek, it was agreed that at the time of opening, ECiM should exceed all expectations and should not run the risk of certain elements of the campus or the surrounding area remaining unfinished. The original plans for the Senior School now have expanded grounds and substantial provision for staff housing; the whole educational project has become more ambitious with the Junior School now over three times the size in the original plan. With this increase in complexity it has been decided, albeit with some reluctance, that the right decision is to open the Senior School of New Press Advertisement in September 2013, one year later than originally planned. By September 2013, New Press Advertisement will be ready to welcome students from Year 7 through to Year 12.

We thank you again for your support and look forward to very exciting times ahead.
