School canopies can be a great addition to both primary and secondary schools in Derbyshire as they are a way to make the most out of the outdoor environment that is currently available.
It can be hard for a school site to continually accommodate the growing number of students they expect each year as budgets are being cut.
Instead of working on expanding the school building, which can cost a lot of money and take a lot of time out of the school year, school canopies and outdoor shelters can make the most out of the existing surrounding environment by creating safe spaces for children to learn and play, whatever the weather.
When it comes to schools, there are so many canopy options. Outdoor areas can be transformed into safe education facilities, and bespoke canopies can create safe play areas for children.
There are options for shelter from wet weather and providing shade, which can make such a difference to the schoolyard as it can be used all year round in Dronfield.
School canopies can also work to create covered walkways or a cycle shelter, both of which have practical benefits year-round when it comes to protecting children from the Great British weather.
Working with a reputable company can ensure that you can create the perfect environment for school children of all ages through the efficient project coordination and installation services on offer.

Creating safe spaces for outdoor learning and play is vital and is something that all schools should be able to offer.
There are many options when it comes to school canopies that can be installed in the existing outdoor environment, and many schools opt for playground shelters that can create outdoor classrooms.
Ofsted considers outdoor learning to be an integral part of a full curricular system which is why primary schools and early years learning facilities can benefit greatly from sheltered spaces in their playground.
Being able to get outside and spend time in nature is vital for children in their early years of development.

For a primary school, we can work closely with the needs of young children to provide an outdoor canopy that allows them to get fresh air and the benefits of the great outdoors without any risk to their safety.

Outdoor time is important for children, and it is also an important thing for young adults too, even though they are often overlooked.
Many secondary schools and colleges do not have much outdoor space that can be used safely by students during lessons or at break time, which is something we can help with.
Canopies and shelters can be installed to reduce congestion within the main building and corridors during breaks, which is a common issue for colleges and secondary schools that have a large number of students.
By providing weather protection to students in Dronfield, they can get outside at any time of the year, which can reduce the number of students inside the school building at any time, making it a safer and more comfortable environment for all.
Just like any primary school can benefit from outdoor facilities, colleges and secondary schools also require additional room for their students yet have to deal with a limited budget.
While older children and young adults might not necessarily play outdoors as students at a primary school do, a school shelter or some outdoor canopies can be very useful in schools for older students and colleges due to the additional space they provide.
Working closely with schools, such as County Durham College and local authorities, we can provide a range of school canopies to suit any school and any age student.
For secondary schools and colleges in Dronfield, the focus will be more on creating the following:

A great asset to any school is their sports MUGA spaces, which can be used in lessons as well as during break times so children can get the exercise they need.

They can also protect and preserve the MUGA spaces, preventing sun damage and keeping them dry, so they are safe for children to use at all times.

You may not require planning permission if you are getting a school canopy as a replacement for what already exists on your site.
Planning permission may not be needed for canopies if this replacement is working with a similar location size, layout, and even colours of the school canopy as it will already work with the environment.
However, if your school is inside a Listed building, in a conservation area, a National Park, or an area of outstanding natural beauty in Dronfield, or if part of the proposed canopy or walkway is located in areas that are classified.
Then planning permission may be needed before outdoor canopies can be installed.
This is something you can speak to your local authority about, whether you are a primary school or a college.
We can work with any restrictions that are in place as all our school canopies are made to order to ensure the best fit for your needs.
