Schools, Classrooms & Daycares
ATCO believes that the school is more than just a building. We believe that schools are the heartbeat of any community and act as the social and cultural hub. Schools need to have the ability to grow, shrink, and evolve in line with the community.
The average child spends over 15,000 hours inside a school by the time they graduate, second only to time spent in their home. Our youth need every opportunity to succeed and that begins with a healthy learning environment. Providing students with well-lit, comfortable, and quiet learning environments leads to improved academic results.
We seamlessly integrate traditional core school construction with our classrooms to provide schools with a healthier atmosphere that is more conducive to learning. Explore the unique, progressive learning spaces we create that keep students comfortable and engaged.
Prefabricated school buildings can be designed in various layouts to create learning environments that align with the education programs you offer.
Benefits of Building Modular
Minimal Campus Disruption
We recognise that education facilities are learning environments, not construction sites. Building modules off-site in a quality-controlled facility reduces school interruptions.
Reduced Overall Build Program
Manufacturing commences before the site is ready. Site preparation occurs concurrently delivering your new learning spaces sooner.
High Quality Finish
Materials and Fabrics used in modular buildings are the same as those used in traditional construction. With the added benefit of building in an indoor, quality-controlled environment this results in delivering quality finishes and workmanship.
Relocatable
Modular buildings can be relocated, providing you the ability to address short-term needs without significant impact to the school surroundings.
Increased Flexibility in Placement of Building Location
Traditional civil and earthworks challenges are reduced when working on hillsides, creating more options for usable land.
Ability to Repurpose or Refurb
The modular construction methodology results in ease of access to services & layout reconfiguration, enabling you to keep up with current trends in learning environment layouts and use of technologies.
