Modular classrooms are faster, more affordable, and less disruptive than traditional school construction. They are manufactured off-site in controlled environments, ensuring consistent quality and compliance with education standards. Once delivered, they can be installed quickly, reducing downtime for schools and nurseries. Modular buildings are also flexible and scalable, meaning layouts can be tailored to include classrooms, offices, canteens, or specialist learning spaces.
Most modular classrooms can be delivered in a matter of weeks and installed on-site in just a few days. The timescale depends on the size and complexity of the building required – single classrooms can be ready very quickly, while larger multi-room or multi-storey school facilities may take longer to manufacture. Because construction happens off-site, installation is efficient and causes minimal disruption to daily school life.
Modular classrooms can be used for both temporary and permanent applications. Schools often choose them as temporary solutions during refurbishments or when enrolment suddenly increases. However, modular school buildings are also robust enough for long-term use, with a typical lifespan of 20–60 years when maintained properly. This makes them a reliable option for permanent classrooms, nurseries, or training centres.
Yes, modular classrooms and nursery buildings can be fully customised for accessibility and child-friendly use. Options include accessible toilets, ramps, wide doorways, and layouts that comply with disability regulations. For nurseries and early years settings, interiors can be designed with child-focused features such as low-level fittings, bright open spaces, and secure play areas. This ensures the building supports safe, inclusive, and engaging learning environments.
Unfortunately our delivery was delayed by several hours but the driver made up for lost time, he was very polite and proffessional and sited the container inch perfect.
I was treated extremely well they took care of what I needed without any fuss.
I cannot thank the staff at S Jones Containers enough. Everyone I spoke to went over and above to help. The containers were ordered and delivered in a very timely manner. We were kept informed at all times. The containers arrived at the time expected and were very easy to install. Thank you to everyone at S Jones Containers.
