SCHOOL PROJECTS
Transforming Indoor Learning, Outdoor Classroom & Playground Spaces for Schools
Play to Measure are experts in creating exciting and accessible spaces, outdoor classrooms and sensory areas to support child development in schools.
Using the highest quality materials, we design and build robust structures for supervised play spaces tailored to the needs, space and budget of your school.
All our timber is responsibly sourced and we specialise in incorporating the natural environment into our designs.
Forest Schools and Outdoor Learning Projects
We transform underused spaces into engaging learning environments to support outdoor learning and Forest Schools education. From outdoor classrooms and nature ponds to mud kitchens and tree houses, our structures are designed with The Playwork Principals and Forest Schools ethos at their core.
Read our projects blog below to see how we work in collaboration with schools to enhance outdoor learning and play opportunities for children and young people.
Transforming Spaces for Positive Engagement at Priory Park Community School
Play to Measure developed a safe and welcoming space where students could socialise, have fun, and engage in a range of hands-on outdoor activities. Priory Park Community School needed a place where young individuals didn't feel confined or restricted, but rather inspired to explore, learn, and collaborate.
Transforming Indoor Learning Spaces
When the head of English at Penn Fields School approached us with the idea of designing a wooden tree for the children to explore, little did we know it would lead to the creation of an enchanting world within their library.
Unlocking Learning Adventures: Pens Meadow School's Outdoor Transformation (SEND)
At Pens Meadow Special School we transformed an inaccessible space into engaging learning environments to support outdoor learning and Forest Schools education.
This project included an outdoor classroom, sensory relaxation garden, a music play area, a mud kitchen, a water play area, a series of interlinked tree houses and a marina complete with nature pond, converted boat, jetty and boat house.
Turning an Overgrown, Inaccessible Space into a Play Oasis at Penn Fields School (SEND)
Penn Fields School in Wolverhampton educates students from Early Years to Post 16, with a range of special education needs and disabilities.
They had a long strip of forested area to the back of their playground that was quite inaccessible and overlooked by a public pathway. Play to Measure were challenged to come up with a range of designs to create more privacy and make the space accessible, stimulating and exciting!
Outdoor Learning Developments at Wollescote Primary
Wollescote Primary School in Stourbridge wanted to develop a brand new Forest School site to provide a range of provision for outdoor learning that linked to their old Forest School site.
