Primary & Secondary School Canopy Ideas

The benefits of school canopies: Making the most of your space 

Opting for a school canopy is not just an investment for your school, but for the well-being of your staff and pupils, too. Here are some key advantages of a secondary school or primary school canopy: 

  • Solving space shortages – Whether you need extra learning areas or a sheltered dining space, an outdoor school canopy can be a great alternative to costly building extensions.

  • Assured safety in all environments – Our canopies enhance safety and are there to protect pupils from slippery surfaces, preventing skinned knees or other tumbles.

  • High-quality protection, no matter the weather – Each school canopy has been crafted to withstand the Great British weather. Allow pupils to enjoy the outdoors even on those grey, rainy days, and protect them from harsh UV rays on sunnier days thanks to our durable fabrics.

  • Outside play, every day – A school canopy can really do wonders for your students’ mental and physical health. A safe outdoor space, like a padel court canopy, can also prevent cancellations of outdoor sports, and the addition of heating and lighting will keep students warm and cosy during colder months.

Glee with Three: Leeds West Academy Adds Three New Canopies

Based in Leeds, Leeds West Academy was searching for the perfect shelter solution to create more outdoor seating options. The team decided a trio of canopies would be the right way to achieve this.

They chose a mixture of polycarbonate and fabric designs that would give the students a variety of options whilst still complementing the rest of the school grounds. umbrella canopy leeds west academy

The new outdoor canopy for this school provided seating canopies, which has given the students the chance to be out in the fresh air, every single day no matter the weather.
