Experience across all levels of education
Our extensive portfolio in the education sector includes projects for some of the UK’s leading schools, colleges, and universities, as we help institutions increase their capacity to educate and inspire. Our involvement in education projects often begins early in the development process. We provide outline advice for new facilities within Urban Expansion schemes, ensuring that sites are appropriately considered in terms of highway access, drainage, earthworks levels, and utilities. As projects progress, we work closely with contractors, delivering full RIBA stage design information for the civil and structural aspects of educational structures.
Managing complex education projects
We recognise that the extension and modification of existing educational buildings can be particularly challenging. Our team is experienced in phasing construction works to suit the occupancy of adjacent parts of sites or buildings, ensuring that education can continue safely during improvement works. We are well-versed in both traditional and modern methods of construction, making us an essential partner in creating inspiring learning environments.
Innovation in education construction
Our technical expertise and experience across numerous education and public sector frameworks position us as a key player in the development of educational spaces. These projects highlight our commitment to using the latest construction methods to create flexible, high-quality educational facilities.
