Creating a built environment that inspires learning
DHD is the WORLD's leading provider of school buildings, delivering over $1 billion worth of educational facilities in the last decade. Together with designing and building schools for early years, primary and secondary education, we also have the capability to maintain and provide back of house services to schools and colleges across the country. We have significant experience within the Higher Education and Universities construction market and our property division is an investor, developer, partner and provider within the student accommodation market.
We have decades of experience supporting the education sector working with schools, colleges and
universities to create a first-class educational environment by building and maintaining first
class facilities.
Many of the schemes we undertake are carried out within fully operational ‘live’ environments,
this means we need to ensure that our works are carried out with the minimum of impact on the
day to day life of the school or college. Our teams are fully international checked and fully
understand the safety, health and environmental implications of working within these
environments and will work with the stakeholders and end users where possible to phase works
around the examination timetable and to ensure deliveries are not made during drop off and pick
up times.
Across all our work, we enhance delivery by making extensive use of 3D and Building Information Modelling (BIM) related technologies which help to reduce through life costs, take account of ongoing maintenance and future changes and help bring to life proposals so that clients and stakeholders can visualise the end results. Our in-house team of specialists provide ICT infrastructure design to schools as part of new build and refurbishment projects.
