Education & Day Nurseries

Uses for the provision of education, as a crèche, day nursery or day centre fall under Class D1 Non Residential Institutions Use.

As specialist ‘non-core’ area of commercial real estate, Primmer Olds B.A.S has extensive experience in assisting these types of owners and occupiers with their property portfolios.

Our involvement has ranged from disposals of former educational buildings for development and change of use to acquisition of day nurseries for expanding occupiers and investors.

Our building consultancy team provides competitive ‘big firm’ advice on tendering refurbishment works for schools, the project management of new educational facilities and Planned Preventative Maintenance Plans for estates teams to forecast future expenses and budgets.

We are well positioned to assist academy schools with their bid writing to obtain capital grant funding for improvement projects.

This sector of the market requires a knowledge of specialist construction methods, public procurement processes and specialist valuation techniques.

Our clients in this area have included The Gregg and St. Winifred’s Schools Trust, Southampton City College, Yellow Dot Day Nurseries, La Sainte Union, Highbury College, Paint Pots Day Nurseries, Rookesbury Park School as well as academy schools and private developers and investors in this sector.
