BARNSLEY SCHOOLS PROJECTS
In 2009 a new wave of projects began in Barnsley under the Building Schools for the Future (BSF) government investment programme. The projects covered the following schools: Penistone Grammar, Carlton School, Kirkbalk School, Denton School, Shafton School, and Springwell School.
Crown House Technologies (CHT) undertook mechanical and electrical installations on all of the projects and utilised Zip-Clip’s innovative heavy-duty support systems to hang the modular containment on each of the schools.
