Harehills Primary School

"This is a fantastic new building.  Foremans have worked well with us, were sensitive to our needs, and their project management team was excellent. The construction has not impeded the running of the school in any way, and we are very pleased with the classrooms which are great in terms of size and usability.  They are light and airy and very pleasant to work in.  The building feels substantial and not at all relocatable, and is significantly better than the accommodation we had previously."

Lesley Dolben, Head Teacher, Harehills Primary School


"Foremans only supplies quality pre-owned modular buildings, such as Portakabin and Yorkon products, which are tried and tested.  And because the modules are fully refurbished, it is very difficult to tell the finished building from new."

"The approach gives us the quality of accommodation we need for schools in the area and to a tight budget.   Other benefits include reduced construction time, less disruption to teaching, and because the buildings we use are recycled, it is very sustainable.  This type of construction also lends itself to constrained sites such as Harehills, where there is little space for heavy plant, equipment and storage of building materials."

"The Foremans team is well organised, professional and have a well established supply chain to offer a full package of construction services."
