“Over the last 9 years, S2e have done an outstanding job in securing us CIF funding to really transform our school. We could not have done this without their expertise and support over the years. They are a true partner dedicated to our success story.”
S2e’s expertise and dedication in constructing our new STEM building were outstanding. Their ability to navigate challenges and deliver a top-quality educational facility reflects their commitment to excellence. We are immensely grateful for their contribution.
“The addition of this versatile and exciting facility to Martin High School has created greater opportunities to enhance health and well being for pupils and staff. It has also created a fantastic facility for the community, serving as a dedicated venue to optimise the sports offerings for individuals of all ages in the locality.
“Surveyors to Education (S2e) are nothing short of amazing! They are very supportive; they communicate consistently well and remove a lot of the stress of managing a big project. They have been both the designer and the school’s representative through the process and they really want to ensure we understand what is going on at each step of the process.”
The Condition Improvement Fund (CIF) has been confirmed for another year, providing eligible academies, colleges and voluntary-aided schools the opportunity to secure capital funding to keep their buildings safe and in good working order.
The UK government’s 10-Year Infrastructure Strategy sets out £725 billion of investment to deliver a coordinated, long-term plan for national infrastructure. For the education estate, the strategy signals welcome stability in maintenance funding and strategic planning - but its expanded School Rebuilding Programme raises questions about scale and impact.
At S2e, we now offer a school security assessment designed to help schools stay ahead of evolving threats while remaining aligned with UK government guidance and the principles of Martyn’s Law. With new legislation on the horizon, schools will be expected to demonstrate that their estates, policies, and procedures are robust, proportionate, and regularly reviewed.
We are thrilled to announce that the Simon Cole Sports Centre at Manor High School in Oadby has been named a finalist in the prestigious Medium Non-Residential Scheme of the Year category at the ProCon Leicestershire Awards 2025!
