Hillingdon Council is investing more than £3 million to replace the roofs of five schools across the borough, ensuring improved insulation and long-term energy savings.
The work began over the summer, with Whitehall Infant School in Uxbridge already completed.
The remaining projects, at Newnham Infant School and Whiteheath Infant School in Ruislip, Bourne Primary School in South Ruislip, and Hayes Park School, are nearing completion.
Council representatives, including Cllr Jonathan Bianco, Cabinet Member for Corporate Services and Property, and Cllr Susan O’Brien, Cabinet Member for Children, Families and Education, recently visited the schools to inspect the new roofing installations. They were accompanied by head teachers, council officers, and representatives from CWG Group, the contractors responsible for the work.
The replacement work followed building surveys and was carried out proactively to prevent deterioration from affecting pupils and staff. In addition to ensuring structural integrity, the upgrades provide enhanced insulation, which will contribute to energy efficiency and a reduction in the schools’ carbon footprint.
With these improvements, the council aims to enhance learning environments while promoting sustainability within the borough’s schools.
