Samuel Alexander Building Signage and South Foyer/Main Entrance
Over the summer, directional signage in the building has been updated with additional signs to help building users navigate more easily. If temporary signage is required for event signposting, please contact Helena Wong or Lisa Good from the School Operations Team who can provide laminated signs.
The School is also planning to repurpose the South foyer area in consultation with the Faculty Estates, and install new signage.
