A modern alternative to traditionally built classrooms.
There is a growing demand for additional space at most schools. Many were built years, even decades ago to accommodate a much smaller intake of pupils. Now faced with the ever-growing school-age population, classroom space is at a premium.
When you factor in the extended school day, with earlier starts to accommodate the busy working patterns of parents, coupled with afterschool clubs, not to mention holiday clubs, it is no wonder schools and colleges are searching for more space within their boundaries.
However, as we all know the cost of adding a brick-built building has risen astronomically. The time taken for passing plans, risk assessments and all the other red tape, which is required to be down before breaking ground, can sometimes take longer than the build itself. Add to this the disruption of having a full building team on school premises for months at a time, along with the mess and noise from traditional builds, it’s no wonder many schools look to modular buildings as a low-cost, low-impact and modern way to add classroom space to their premises.
A modular classroom building can be built to accommodate specific requirements such as classrooms, science blocks, kitchens, toilet blocks and sports changing rooms. Whether it is an open-plan space you require or a specific internal layout, we can help. Your school, your building, your choice.
Areas can be divided up with moveable screening or include integral room dividers to slide and create two or three spaces of varying sizes. The only limit is your imagination.
The reward for choosing modular is a sustainable building that is built to last, environmentally friendly, aesthetically attractive, designed to meet exact specifications and regulations and all at a lower cost and much, much quicker than a brick-built equivalent. And don’t forget the safety aspect, with units built off-site, avoiding the very real implications of risk to children by installing during school holidays.
