net zero ambitions

Amber was appointed by the London Borough of Hackney to deliver internal and external refurbishment works at Shacklewell Primary School, with a strong focus on supporting the borough’s net zero ambitions. Key to this was the roofing upgrades and energy efficiency measures to meet the school’s energy output requirements.

To minimise disruption, the programme was carefully phased to take place both during and outside of term time. Clear communication protocols, advance notice of intrusive works and regular updates kept students, parents and teachers fully informed throughout. This proactive approach allowed works to begin as soon as the summer holiday started, maximising delivery during closure whilst ensuring pupils safety.

social value

As a way of giving back to the school community we hosted an assembly to highlight the importance of safety on construction sites. Pupils were then invited to take part in a poster competition, sharing their ideas on staying safe, the role of personal protective equipment and the potential dangers found on a building site. The creativity and effort they put in was outstanding, and we were thrilled to award arts and crafts prizes to the winners.

To further support the school, we also donated a £1,000 cheque to help fund future trips and activities.
