Efficient & High-Quality Canopies

Building on the success of the first canopy, this latest addition has been designed to provide a fully enclosed, comfortable space where students can gather throughout the year.

Featuring high-quality glass walls and doors, along with integrated heating and lighting, the structure delivers a modern, functional environment that meets full building regulations.

How does this benefit the school?

The new canopy has significantly increased the school’s capacity to accommodate students during busy lunch periods.

By creating space for hundreds of pupils to eat and socialise together, it plays an important role in improving the overall student experience.

Key Features

Social interaction is a key part of school life, and the additional space helps foster a more relaxed and inclusive atmosphere while also easing pressure on existing indoor dining areas.

A key feature of the design is the use of glass throughout the enclosure, which creates a bright and open feel while still offering full protection from the elements.

This ensures the space can be used comfortably in all weather conditions. The canopy’s location, installed directly adjacent to the main school building, allows pupils to access it easily without needing to step outside, making it a practical and convenient extension of the school’s facilities.

Built with durability in mind, the Space Max dining canopy is a heavy-duty, structurally tested solution backed by a 25-year warranty.

Long-term Reliability

This ensures long-term reliability and value for the school, making it a smart investment for the future.
