Using space optimally and effectively

Making best use of the space available can be a challenge for education establishments. We use best practices from around the globe to design spaces that encourage learning and enhance the student and educator experience – while getting the most out of the available floor space.

We don’t just focus on the indoors. The quality of your outdoor spaces is equally important in creating an environment designed for success. We create green, outdoor spaces that help students relax, socialise and play, while also improving the biodiversity of the local community.

Supporting the Education sector sustainably

Within the UK’s education sector, we integrate specific initiatives to add social value. In addition to governance-focused ESG measures, we address the challenge of food waste by implementing a zero-food-waste menu in our catering services for schools. We can help align our services to your sustainability goals and directly contribute to the local community by redistributing surplus food to those in need. We are constantly finding new ways to innovate and improve our ESG offerings to create positive impacts within the UK’s public sector.

We integrate practices which put the environment first. From energy-efficient systems to food waste reduction menus, we actively seek sustainable solutions.
By providing clear insights into our processes and practices, we make sure our sustainability efforts align with the values and expectations of our customers.
Encouraging participation in initiatives such as ‘grow gardens’ we want to create a community that contributes to the well-being of both the educational ecosystem and the planet.
