What Are the Benefits of Canopies For Schools?
Investing in a school canopy is not just an investment for your school, but for the well-being of your staff and pupils, too. No matter what your requirements of a canopy are, they bring great value, flexibility, and style to your institution. Still feeling unsure? Let’s have a look at the benefits in a bit more detail…
Assured Safety in All Environments
When parents drop their kids off at the school gates, they want to feel reassured that they are in safe hands. While we can’t wrap up each child in cotton wool, we can assure you that our canopies for schools are there to enhance safety and protect children from slippery surfaces, preventing skinned knees or other bumps and tumbles.
Even if a downpour is predicted, pupils can run around and play on totally dry surfaces, thanks to the protection of a canopy. A lot of our school canopies also come with gutters and downpipes to prevent water overflow and ice formation.
High-Quality Protection, Whatever the Weather
All canopies designed here at A&S Landscape have been crafted to withstand the full force of the Great British weather. Without an effective and protective shelter, the use of a school canopy is pretty pointless! At A&S Landscape, no matter what style of canopy you choose, the end product will be long-lasting and provide maximum protection so that pupils can enjoy the outdoors even on those grey and cloudy days.
Outside Play, Every Day
We’ve talked about the benefits of outdoor play and why learning in nature can help your students, but the impact of an outdoor canopy can really do wonders for your students’ mental and physical health. A dry and safe outdoor space can also prevent cancellations of outdoor activities, and the addition of heating and lighting will keep pupils cosy during even the winter months.
A school canopy can also be used as a play area, dining area, or teaching area. Whatever your requirements are, our outdoor canopies for schools are a flexible solution to a school’s ever-changing needs and requirements.

Glee with Three: Leeds West Academy Adds Three New Canopies

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. 
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.
