In November 2023, data released by the Department for Education revealed that 231 schools and colleges were impacted by the RAAC crisis; affecting the safety of schools and disrupting student learning.
Premier Modular has supported a number of schools following the discovery of RAAC to date, including The Bromfords School, Merrylands Primary School and Buckhurst Hill Community Primary School. When these schools discovered RAAC in their buildings, the affected areas were closed immediately. This caused intense disruption to pupil learning at the start of the school year and required some students to work remotely.
As a result of the sudden challenges the presence of RAAC created, all three of these schools needed temporary accommodation for students which reflected their individual needs, fast. Following a partnership with Premier Modular, each school received modular school buildings within a matter of weeks.
“From our initial contact with Luke and the team to the expert installation of accommodation for Merrylands Primary School, we valued Premier Modular’s efficiency and dedication to delivering on their promises. They were fully aware of the constraints of working on a live site and put strategic and safety-focused procedures in place to alleviate pressure on our team and the school. The company’s provision of a full turnkey building solution at speed, in line with the required specifications, proved Premier Modular is far more than just an accommodation supplier, and we appreciated their insight, guidance and standout expertise.”
In emergency situations such as the RAAC policy announcement in August 2023, a fast reaction was critical. Premier Modular’s response to the crisis was excellent with fast, transparent communication provided from the start.
