We’re really encouraged to see that according to the UK Education Construction Market Report 2024-2028 that the sector is experiencing its strongest quarterly growth since 2020.
Anne Williams, editor of the report, said: “Looking ahead, our forecasts suggest that growth will exceed 9% in 2024, with double-digit expansion on the horizon for 2026.
“The education sector remains a cornerstone of UK construction, and with a strategic focus on modernising learning environments and implementing sustainability measures, the coming years present significant opportunities for innovation and long-term resilience.”
The report states that while new build projects remain constrained by budget pressures, the sector is seeing renewed investment in refurbishment and maintenance, particularly as funding is redirected to address critical issues like RAAC remediation.
With increased pressure to deliver projects quickly and cost effectively, EnviraBoard is poised to support this growth with the sustainable, cost-effective and superior quality EnviraBoard product made from secondary recycled paper sludge waste.
