Choosing the right building for your education establishment!

We have supplied modular and portable buildings to the education sector since the inception of GCS in 2007. Over the years we have built up a great depth of knowledge as to the specific needs of the education market and we use this to help establishments make the right decisions when choosing an off-site constructed building. We have supplied all sorts of educational establishments from nurseries through to primary and junior schools as well as secondary schools. We’ve also worked with further education in the form of colleges and universities to provide pre constructed buildings for a variety of uses.

Why choose off-site construction to add space to education sites?

Of course, portable and modular buildings provide the same benefits to an educational establishment as they do within any other setting but the advantages are even more important. Whilst the benefit of rapid installation and commissioning is important for any business, within a school for example, this is even more so. A building site and children do not go well together and the necessary noise and disruption a building site produces is not helpful to a quiet classroom environment.

The perfect solution for a school is that any construction work can begin at the end of one term and be completed before the next term begins. With traditional building methods this is rarely possible even within the summer holiday and is never possible within any of the other holidays. However, with our range of modular buildings, we can provide a school with the perfect solution. Our wide range of modular buildings are regularly installed in a matter of days or weeks, so we can easily install and commission a new building within the school holidays if required.

We can provide a modular building solution for anything that a traditional ‘bricks and mortar’ building can provide – even multi storey solutions. Within days we can provide expanded classrooms, canteens, toilet facilities – the list is endless. All of our buildings are insulated and energy efficient and come complete with any wiring, plumbing or gas facilities that are needed for their operation. 

What next?

If you need more space, talk to us to see how we can provide this for you within the school holidays with no disruption to the term time operation of your institution and at a fraction of the cost of a traditional building. It might sound too good to be true but this is exactly what modular buildings offer!
