Improving schools and bringing positive change.
Education
Oakland Construction has extensive experience in the new build, alteration, and refurbishment of school premises. By collaborating with stakeholders in the education sector and understanding the demands and challenges that schools face, we can deliver high-quality educational facilities while minimising disruption to the teaching and learning environment.
While we often undertake projects during holidays when schools are closed, this limited timeframe requires efficient and precise project management to ensure completion. However, we embrace this challenge by implementing phased programmes, allowing us to manage complex projects in discrete stages. This phased approach means works can progress smoothly, with the school continuing its day-to-day operations with minimal interference.

Minimising disruption
Our phased programmes are particularly effective in coordinating extensive refurbishments and alterations, allowing us to meet tight deadlines without compromising quality. As a priority, we minimise disruption for all projects, particularly extensions to existing school buildings, by fully separating the construction area from active school areas, including playgrounds and car parks.
By using strategically placed hoardings and setting up separate delivery entrances, we can ensure the safety and well-being of all students, staff, and visitors while allowing construction to move forward efficiently.
Delivering results
Our track record in the education sector and our impressive portfolio of projects demonstrate our ability to deliver exceptional results under challenging conditions. Oakland Construction is dedicated to improving educational facilities, supporting the learning environment, and ensuring our projects contribute positively to the school and wider community.
Oakland Construction maintains the highest safety and security standards when working near children. All personnel involved in school or education projects carry current DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) certification, reflecting our commitment to creating a secure student environment.
