11 Schools Summer Programme
Various, South Wales — 2023
Last updated: March 2026
Scaffolding for 11 schools delivered within a single 6-week summer shutdown window.
School scaffolding projects have an immovable deadline: the work must be completed before pupils return in September. When Trust Scaffolding was contracted to provide scaffolding for 11 schools in a single summer, the challenge was clear — deliver reliable scaffold access to every school, on time, within a 6-week window.
The programme required precise logistical planning. Scaffolding had to be erected, the building works completed by the roofing contractor, and the scaffold dismantled — all on 11 different sites across South Wales. Our team used a rolling programme, moving from site to site in a coordinated sequence that maximised efficiency.
Each school had its own access requirements, building configurations, and site constraints. Some were single-storey primary schools, others were larger secondary school buildings. Our estimators surveyed each site individually and designed scaffold solutions tailored to the specific requirements of each school.
Completing 11 schools within the summer shutdown demonstrated the operational capacity of Trust Scaffolding — our ability to manage multiple simultaneous projects without compromising on quality, safety, or timeliness on any individual site. It is a capability we now offer to roofing contractors, local authorities, and facilities management companies across South Wales.
