Groundworks
& drainage for schools and trusts

Playground extensions, drainage and groundworks delivered for multi-academy trusts and local authorities, scheduled carefully around term time and pupil safety.

Groundworks, drainage and playground civils for schools and academy trusts

Construction on an occupied school site brings a different set of pressures – term-time deadlines, pupil safety and enhanced DBS requirements sit alongside the usual technical demands of groundworks and drainage. Lawday delivers playground extensions, drainage and civil engineering packages for multi-academy trusts and local authorities, with programmes built around the school calendar from the outset.
Recent projects include playground extension works in Beckenham and groundworks packages at White Hill and Offham Primary Schools in Kent – all delivered with the safeguarding and site-access protocols that education clients expect.
