Building Schools for the Future

Building Schools for the Future (BSF) is the biggest single government investment in improving school buildings for over 50 years. The government has committed to a programme of rebuilding and renewing English schools. This initiative will ensure that secondary education in every part of England has facilities of a 21st-Century standard.

By the year 2011, all local authorities in England will have received funding to renew the school that is most in need of improvement. By the year 2016, every local authority in England will have started major rebuilding and remodeling projects in at least three secondary schools.

Whether you need a few temporary classrooms during refurbishment work, or extra facilities for long-term use to cope with increased student numbers, Buildings For The Future has the right solutions to meet your requirements.

The programme recognises that innovative techniques, including Off-Site Construction, may be needed to deliver this programme. Modern modular buildings, which comply with the latest building regulations, can be used to provide temporary classrooms while existing school buildings are refurbished or replaced.

As well as using modular buildings for temporary use, many existing schools have recognised the benefits of modular construction for providing additional permanent school buildings, which meets their needs and requirements. By specifying Off-Site Construction, you can minimise disruption on site and the health and safety risks associated with long- term building projects in school grounds.

In the past, modular construction was only considered for temporary classrooms, but it can be an equally effective construction method to provide high quality permanent classrooms and other educational facilities.

Do you need an entire school?

We can supply entire schools, incorporating fully integrated facilities designed by our education specialists. We work closely with you to ensure the school provides everything your students and staff need.

Modular buildings can be successfully used for:

  • Classrooms and Classroom Blocks
  • ICT suites
  • Canteens
  • Changing Facilities
  • Laboratories
  • Offices and Crèches
  • Nurseries and Day-Care Centers

These projects typically require decanting some of the existing facilities to free up space for new developments or refurbishments. Therefore a requirement for well-designed and cost-efficient decants facilities, which enable teachers and other workers to carry on business as usual during major school redevelopments is needed.

When considering the Carbon Footprint of your building, contrasting timber and minimum steel against a "traditional build" structure, it is both environmentally friendly and energy efficient.

Whatever your requirements are we can provide a cost-effective and practical solution.
