Asbestos Removal for Schools & Education
Discuss planned asbestos works for school and college estates across Essex and the South East, from refurbishment scope to site handover.
Plan the works around your school estate
A classroom refurbishment, heating upgrade or roof project can affect materials recorded in an asbestos register. Before scheduling works, the estates team and contractors need suitable information about the areas that will be disturbed, including any survey limitations.
Leesafe provides asbestos removal and survey services across Essex and the South East. For an education project, send the proposed scope, relevant asbestos information and available work windows so we can discuss the assessment and planning needed for your site.
A school holiday is a useful planning window, but the programme must also account for access, any applicable notification period, the work itself and the required handover before pupils or staff return. Start dates and completion arrangements need to be agreed for the individual project.

Sector Challenges
We Understand Your Requirements
Survey Scope
Identify the rooms, voids and building elements affected by the proposed work. A management survey may not cover an intrusive refurbishment scope.
Holiday Programmes
Share term dates, holiday activities and other contractors’ programmes when discussing the available work window.
Safeguarding & Access
Set out the school’s contractor checks, induction, supervision and access requirements before mobilisation.
Occupied Areas
Identify any teaching, nursery or community areas that will remain in use so separation and movement restrictions can be assessed.
Coordination
Agree responsibilities with the school, trust, local authority or main contractor, including the contact for changes to the scope.
Handover
Agree the records and clearance arrangements applicable to the work, and provide the information needed to update the asbestos register.
