Modular building

Modular buildings meet the demand for schools that need to be built in a short period of time, and this certainly is the case for the Langford Academy.

Central Bedfordshire Council had an urgent requirement following a recent condition survey, to resolve their issue they looked at ESPO’s 953 -Modular Building Framework for the supply, manufacture,  delivery and installation of Double classroom block, containing Two large DfE classrooms with storage areas, Accessible Toilet and Three W/C’s along with a  lobby area.

Following the competitive mini-competition tendering process, with the speed of delivery at the heart as the main driver following the award and prestart meeting we worked with the Council to fast-track the building into use.

Following a successful delivery and occupation, we provided a further two double classroom blocks to additional School sites in the Central Bedfordshire region.

  • Principal Contractor
  • Flush DDA Access
  • 6 Modular bays
  • Heat & Cooling A/C
  • Suspended Ceiling
  • Window Blinds
