School Holiday Project Management
Managing complex groundworks during school holiday windows.
About Our School Holiday Project Management Service
School surfacing projects present unique challenges - they must be completed within tight holiday windows while maintaining absolute site security. White & Sons has extensive experience delivering playground resurfacing, car park improvements, and pathway installations during summer, Easter, and half-term breaks. Our project managers create detailed programmes with contingency plans, ensuring handover before the first day of term. We work considerately and safely around school environments and keep every site secure throughout the project.
In Detail
White & Sons has delivered many school surfacing projects across Dorset and Hampshire, from small playground repairs to complete campus transformations. We understand the unique pressures of education sector work: immovable deadlines dictated by school holidays, sensitive working environments adjacent to residential areas, and the need for surfaces that are safe, durable, and visually appealing for children. Our project managers produce detailed programmes with built-in contingency for weather delays, ensuring we always hand over before the first day of term. We carry £10M public liability insurance and maintain a strict no-smoking, no-swearing, no-radio site policy on all school projects.

Absolutely. We install a wide range of thermoplastic and painted play markings including hopscotch, number grids, compass roses, running tracks, and multi-sport court lines (netball, football, basketball, tennis).
