SES is proud to be involved in what is becoming the largest, single government investment to develop school buildings, in over 50 years.

Jim Marner, Divisional Director for SES said, “We’re delighted to have been involved in this pioneering government initiative. Modern, well-designed buildings with large, welcoming entrances, lots of natural light and ‘social spaces’ will transform educational buildings as we know them today. “
