Primary and Early Years

Discover innovative buildings designed around the needs of children

When commissioning primary and early years' facilities, you want to ensure an environment that can truly improve a child's chances in life. That's why Yorkon is committed to developing innovative buildings that enhance the educational experience and encourage a child's development as they grow.

For over 25 years, Yorkon has provided a range of primary school solutions for early years and foundation stages right through to Key Stages 1 and 2.

How will you benefit from a primary and early years' environment from Yorkon?

Earlier occupation, guaranteed quality, design flexibility, cost control, improved site safety and less disruption to your school during construction are just some of the benefits a Yorkon solution will offer you:

• Everything from class extensions to complete schools - Creche and reception facilities can be sympathetically integrated into your existing school building. Alternatively, we can provide you with separate primary facilities, such as nurseries or classroom buildings or even complete schools.
• Child-centred space - Working closely with you, your design team or contractor, we will carefully develop every detail of your building. We can incorporate everything from low-level windows to durable fixtures and finishes to ensure a child-centred space that promotes a sense of well-being and security.
• Speed - Innovative building projects delivered in up to half the time of traditional construction. So you can enjoy a faster return on your investment.
• Future flexibility - To accommodate changing class sizes and class uses, Yorkon offers you the flexibility to change the layout of your building should your needs change.
• A cleaner, safer site with minimum disruption - Safety is paramount. Compared to HSE statistics on the safety of traditional construction methods, Yorkon solutions increase site safety by 46%. So you can expect 90 % fewer vehicle movements and a shorter programme - giving you a safer, cleaner site and minimal disruption to staff and pupils.
• A pioneering 5-year product and 20-year structural warranty package - giving you the assurance that your building is built to last.
• With independent British Board of Agrement and Local Authority Building Control LANTAC approval, you can be certain that your facilities will meet the relevant Building Regulations and Building Standards.
• LPBC approval and fire engineered design minimises the risk from fire.
• Your building delivered on time and on budget - that's a promise.
