The project was carried out within a live school environment, necessitating careful planning and execution due to the extensive nature of the works, which could not be confined to vacation periods. To ensure seamless integration with the school's operational needs and prevent any project delays, meticulous programming and scheduling of works stages, tasks, and resources were undertaken. A comprehensive Health & Safety plan was devised, encompassing Risk Assessments and Method Statements (RAMS), a Construction Phase H&S Plan, team inductions, and training sessions to prioritise the safety of students, teaching staff, and site personnel. This included the dissemination of safety information tailored for students and staff members.

Furthermore, additional training was provided to operatives and supply chain partners on site-specific health & safety procedures, including work at height and scaffolding access, as well as the installation methods for the Bauder system. Stringent safeguarding measures were implemented to ensure the protection of students, involving enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) clearance for all site personnel. Works and deliveries were meticulously scheduled to align with the school's timetable, minimising disruption, particularly during morning and afternoon school runs. Additionally, flexible working shifts were adopted to facilitate intrusive works outside of school hours, further mitigating potential disturbances.
