Park View School, Haringey – Sports Hall Recladding

CGA recently completed a summer project at Park View School in Haringey, undertaking recladding and remedial works to the school sports hall. The project was completed on time, ensuring the school could make full use of the facility upon its return in September. Although the building was mostly unoccupied, CGA worked closely with the school’s facilities management team to coordinate works around summer clubs and activities, minimizing disruption.
