Every member of our core team is DBS Enhanced checked, and you’ll always have a single point of contact from a Prestige expert, from first concept to final handover.

Why estates teams choose Prestige Interiors
Bursars, estates directors and facilities managers come back to us project after project because we understand what education environments demand.
A safe pair of hands in a live school. Our core team is DBS Enhanced checked and experienced in working around pupils, staff and safeguarding requirements. We run safe, carefully planned sites that protect the environments they’re within.
Delivery around the academic calendar. We programme major works into summer holidays and half terms, and fast-track when we need to — we transformed a four-storey office building into a 20,000 sq ft sixth form centre in just 11 weeks.
A complete turnkey service. From feasibility studies and 3D visualisation through statutory consents, construction and furniture install, we manage everything — including specialist consultants and sub-contractors — under one point of contact.
Our education services
School fit out — classrooms, sixth form centres, catering, offices and sports facilities, designed and built as a complete turnkey package.
School refurbishment — major refurbishment works, decoration, flooring, roofing and glazing, delivered with minimal disruption.
College fit out & refurbishment — modern teaching and study environments for colleges and sixth forms.
University fit out & refurbishment — fit out and refurbishment for HE estates, delivered on live campuses.
Works undertaken
Our education experience spans the full breadth of an estate’s needs: interior fit out, major refurbishment works, minor works including decoration and flooring, building adaptions, sports facilities, WCs, showers and changing areas, nursery and Early Years settings, roofing, glazing, acoustic treatments, and exterior ground works including playgrounds.
We also deliver mechanical, electrical and public health works, security and fire systems, AV and IT/data works, and general maintenance — so a single contractor can carry your project from design to completion.

“Prestige took on the role of Principal Contractor, working tirelessly with the school estates team to deliver exceptional value for money within a tight programme and without disruption to the school.” — William Nash, Estates Director, St John’s School
Working around the school year
Education projects live and die by the calendar. We plan our programmes around term dates, exams and events, concentrating major works into holiday periods and programming every trade to hit time-critical deadlines. Where a project must run alongside a working school or campus, we phase works, manage access and keep noise, dust and disruption tightly controlled.
Committed to safety in educational spaces
We hold a wide range of industry-recognised certifications and accreditations, each reflecting our commitment to safe, well-run sites. Our health and safety training, DBS Enhanced checked team and careful site planning mean your school community stays protected throughout the works. If you’d like detail on any specific competency or accreditation, just ask.
