Outdoor Classrooms
Outdoor learning and outdoor play are important for all schools and early years settings. They can help develop skills and enhance pupils' learning experience. Our outdoor classrooms, which can be custom designed and made to measure, give children the opportunity to learn outside the traditional setting, whether that's through a custom design or one of our pre-made outdoor classroom canopies. An outdoor classroom is ideal for any school that wants to provide a dedicated outdoor learning facility or expand its existing space.
Broxap design, manufacture and install high-quality outdoor classrooms in a wide range of sizes and configurations. This could be a standalone canopy, a building extension, or a wooden structure constructed by our playground equipment division, Hand Made Places. Outdoor classrooms and shelters for schools are designed to complement existing buildings and surroundings and can be tailored to suit any requirements.
Our range of outdoor classroom canopies and shelters for schools is designed to create a dry, comfortable environment that lets in natural daylight. They provide a sheltered area for children to play and learn, protected from harmful UV rays and wet weather. Structures can include vinyl rollers, side panels and doors to create an engaging learning environment that stays usable even in bad weather. The enclosed outdoor classroom provides an extended learning area, giving schools a functional and practical space for children to play and learn.
Choosing the right outdoor classroom canopy
Our outdoor classroom canopies come in a range of styles to suit different sites and budgets, including timber canopies, standalone gazebos, and enclosed designs with vinyl roller sides. When choosing the right option, it's worth thinking about how the space will be used day-to-day, whether it needs to be accessible for all pupils, and how much protection from wind, rain and sun the location requires. Our team can help you work through these considerations and recommend the best configuration for your school.
Broxap have created outdoor classrooms and shelters for a number of educational establishments including schools, early years settings and nurseries. The Hillside Primary School outdoor classroom is a timber canopy with roller vinyl panels and an end panel, allowing pupils to play together even during bad weather. Another example is the Plymouth Wave canopy, which creates a stylish but practical outdoor classroom.
