School and education signage

External identification, internal wayfinding, statutory and safeguarding signage and wall graphics for schools, academies and colleges, installed in the holidays.

One scheme, installed between terms

Schools have a narrow window for installation and a wide range of signage needs, which is why buying it piecemeal across a year tends not to work. A single coordinated scheme surveyed in the summer term and installed over the holidays is both cheaper and less disruptive.

The usual scope covers the main entrance sign, visitor routing to reception, safeguarding and site notices, department and classroom signage, hall and corridor graphics, and any external boards for the field or car park.

Safeguarding and site access

Visitor routing is a safeguarding requirement rather than a nicety: every visitor must reach reception without crossing the site unaccompanied. We survey the approach as a route rather than a set of sign positions, and our installers are DBS checked where the work happens in term time.

Common questions

When can school signage be installed?

We survey in term time and install over the holidays, which is why a single coordinated scheme works better than buying signs piecemeal across the year.

Are your installers DBS checked?

Yes, where work is carried out in term time our installers are DBS checked.

What signage does a school need for safeguarding?

Visitor routing is the key requirement: every visitor must reach reception without crossing the site unaccompanied. We survey the approach as a continuous route rather than a set of individual sign positions.
