Our Approach

 After the agreement with a previous supplier fell through, Alder Community High School and project managers Prosiect Consult required a reliable partner to deliver a four-classroom building in time for the new September term. After taking the first call in June, we worked quickly and collaboratively with all parties to create a solution that would be ready in time.

We worked with the school and project managers to finalise the design, which called for a four classroom building with a central corridor and – crucially – plenty of natural light to create an optimal learning environment. Our final design incorporated large windows in each classroom and rooflights in the corridor to maximise daylight.

In such a short timeframe, communication was key, and we ensured we kept the school and partners at Prosiect Consult fully informed as the 3,620 sq ft building was being built in our factory.

Installation presented its own challenges, with the structure to be located at the rear of the school; we built a temporary roadway across a culvert to provide the necessary access for site vehicles, lorries, and cranes.

 

The Results

The finished building provides four classrooms, plus storage and common areas, allowing the school to accommodate additional pupil numbers. Our ability to deliver the classroom within a three month timeframe is why Prosiect Consult singled out our ‘professional and proactive’ service throughout.
