JCW Are Going Back To School!
Contractor: ISG PLC
Name of project: Chadwell Primary School,
Size of Project: 1300m2
Throughout August and September 2013, JCW will be heading back to school – but this time, it’s not for lessons. In partnership with ISG PLC, we are proud to announce our involvement in an exciting project that will see us supplying and installing high-performance acoustic flooring for three primary schools in the Redbridge area. This significant undertaking is part of our continued commitment to improving learning environments for students and teachers alike.
The three schools, all constructed using timber frame methods, will benefit from JCW’s industry-leading acoustic solutions, ensuring that their interiors remain peaceful, productive, and conducive to learning. With noise control being a critical factor in any educational setting, our team is working hard to ensure that unwanted disturbances are minimised, and pupils can focus on what matters most: their education.
Acoustic Decking for Enhanced Learning Spaces
In total, JCW will supply and install acoustic decking over an expansive area of 1,300 square metres across all three schools. This specialised flooring is designed to significantly reduce noise transmission between floors, ensuring a quieter and more peaceful environment within each school building. From bustling classrooms to exam halls and sports halls, JCW’s acoustic decking will provide a vital layer of sound insulation, helping to prevent distractions and disturbances throughout the school day.
One of the key benefits of our acoustic flooring is its ability to block out impact noise, such as footsteps or the sound of furniture moving, which can often disrupt lessons or examinations. By reducing this noise, teachers can maintain a calm and focused atmosphere, and students are less likely to be distracted by external sounds. In exam rooms, where concentration is paramount, this reduction in noise will help create an ideal environment for students to perform at their best. No more disturbances during test time – only quiet, uninterrupted focus.
Supporting Active Spaces: From Classrooms to Sports Halls
Our acoustic solutions are not limited to quiet spaces like classrooms or libraries; they’re also essential in more active areas, such as sports halls. Sports and physical activity are an integral part of the school curriculum, but they can generate a significant amount of noise, especially in multi-purpose buildings. With the installation of JCW’s acoustic decking, these spaces will benefit from noise reduction that ensures activities in one area don’t interfere with learning or quiet time in other parts of the school.
Imagine a busy sports hall with students running, jumping, and playing games – without the worry that the noise will travel into nearby classrooms or other important areas like exam rooms. Our acoustic decking is designed to absorb the impact of these activities, ensuring that all parts of the school can function smoothly, without sound interference.
Working with ISG PLC: A Partnership for Progress
This project is part of JCW’s successful collaboration with ISG PLC, a global construction services company known for its focus on delivering high-quality educational facilities. Together, we are committed to creating positive, productive environments where students can thrive, and acoustic performance plays a crucial role in this mission. By choosing JCW’s acoustic flooring solutions, ISG PLC ensures that the schools are built not just to look great, but to function at the highest standard in terms of comfort and practicality.
A Quieter Future for Redbridge Schools
As the installation of the acoustic flooring takes place throughout August and September 2013, we look forward to completing the project in time for the new school year. Students and staff will soon be able to experience the benefits of a more acoustically sound environment, with fewer distractions and a better atmosphere for learning.
At JCW, we understand how important it is to create spaces where students can focus and achieve their full potential. We’re proud to play a role in shaping the future of these Redbridge schools, and we’re confident that our acoustic solutions will contribute to better learning outcomes, happier students, and quieter classrooms.
The Future Sounds Bright
With the installation of our acoustic flooring, there’s no doubt that these schools will experience a transformation in how sound is managed. Whether it’s ensuring that exam rooms remain silent and focused, or preventing the thudding noise from active sports activities in the gym, JCW’s solutions are designed to support the academic success and well-being of both students and staff.
As the new school year begins, we’re hopeful that this enhanced environment will help students concentrate, perform at their best, and perhaps even achieve a few more A* grades! Here’s to quieter, more peaceful classrooms – and a successful year ahead for everyone involved.
