Thorngrove Primary Build
At VIS Systems, we proudly support Galliford Try during the redevelopment of Thorngrove Primary School, a major education project being delivered as part of the Department for Education’s School Rebuilding Programme.
What We Did for the Project with Galliford Try
The project involves replacing the existing school buildings with a sustainable new facility that will include crucial spaces like classrooms, a library, learning spaces, a hall, kitchen facilities, external play areas, and enhanced landscaping; our job - to make sure the school remains operational throughout construction.
Given the sensitive nature of a school environment, site security and monitoring were critical from the beginning to end.
At VIS Systems, we proudly supplied a comprehensive package of CCTV, remote monitoring, time-lapse cameras to help Galliford Try maintain a safe construction site.
Why Our Products Kept the Project Safe and Compliant
We understand that education projects require a particularly high level of security, it isn’t the same as any other build.
With pupils, staff, visitors, contractors, and deliveries operating within the same environment, maintaining clear separation between construction activities and the operational school environment is non-negotiable.
By using our CCTV and monitoring solutions, we provided Galliford Try with continuous oversight of the site, helping to manage:
- Access control
- Monitor contractor activity
- Reduce the risk of theft, vandalism, or unauthorised entry
Not only that, but the time-lapse system delivered additional value by creating a complete visual archive of construction progress.
This allowed project stakeholders to review key milestones, monitor programme performance, and demonstrate the progress being made throughout the redevelopment.
Together, our security and monitoring technologies helped create a safe, compliant, and well-managed construction environment all the while minimising disruption to the school activities.
