Whilst we offer a wide range of services to all types of businesses and organisations, schools really are one of our specialist areas, due to our “one stop shop” business model.
We have vast experience in the education sector and have delivered projects for many of our local schools here in East Yorkshire. We’re able to install everything from data points and fibre cabling right through to specialist disability, CCTV and technology equipment, meaning our customers have just one point of contact for all of their tech needs.
Recently we’ve worked with several schools who are undergoing refurbishment as part of the Government’s Priority School Building Programme…
Hessle High School
The new Hessle High school buildings not only look extremely smart, their tech is too. Alongside our close partner, Rotary, we installed…
Cabinets and approximately 1,200 data points
Fibre cabling throughout the school
87 Samsung 65” screens
CCTV
Wold Academy
Wold Academy is currently in the process of building a brand new school with state of the art tech provision. We were delighted to work alongside Rotary to install:
Cabinets and 350 Cat6 data outlets
28 x AV harness kits
Ainthorpe Primary School
Students and teachers at Ainthorpe Primary School recently moved into their brand new, £4.1M school building, boasting the latest technology and equipment. Working with Rotary, we supplied and installed:
Cabinets and over 300 Data Outlets
27 x AV Harness Kits
Scott Moran of Rotary commented: “The refurbishment at Hessle High was a massive project, so it was great to be able to come to PDS for a number of different services. It really made the installation process a lot easier and we were extremely impressed with the quality of the workmanship from the PDS team.”
He continues: “Ainthorpe Primary School have seen their new school building take shape over the past year, and are so excited to now be in and using the facilities. The school has 12 new classrooms and a modern foundation stage area, along with a new hall and dining space.
Technology was a real priority when drawing up plans for the new school facilities, so we feel the work PDS has done is essential in helping us enhance the learning environment for Wold Academy, Hessle High and Ainthorpe Primary. The team completed the work on time, in budget and to a very high quality – thank you PDS!”
Wolfreton School
Wolfreton School is in the final stages of a major BAM construction project, which will see its Lower, Upper and Sixth Form schools consolidated into one site in Willerby. The new 3 storey school block will be equipped with the latest technology to create a modern, user-friendly learning environment for students.
Working alongside our partner LX Engineering North Ltd, we supplied and installed:
9 Cabinets
Data cabling with over 1200 points
Fibre cabling
Hearing induction loops
TV distribution system
Kirk Hinchliffe of LX Engineering North Limited said “We appointed PDS to undertake the project at Wolfreton School, as we knew we could rely on them to deliver a wide range of services. Having one project manager for a variety of jobs on-site makes the planning process much easier for us, and we were confident their team would complete the job on time, in budget and to the highest standard.”
PDS Managing Director, Iain Bland, comments: “The PDS team have worked tirelessly to complete these projects alongside Rotary. Education is very important to us at PDS and we’re very proud to be giving back and enhancing the working environment for local students and schools.”
