Inside2Outside Maximise Outdoor Shaded Area for South Kirkby Infant and Nursery School

Pupils and Staff alike at South Kirkby Infant and Nursery School in West Yorkshire are now able to enjoy the outdoors in all weather. This is made possible thanks to the installation of a POCCA school canopy by Inside2Outside.

Inside2Outside, based just outside Cambridge are experts in the design, manufacture and installation of canopies, shelters and walkways. The POCCA range introduced in 2001 is designed specifically for schools and each product is designed to fit the needs of each school it is installed at. The main product – The Qube canopy - allows schools to create multi-purpose outdoor areas for use in any weather. Thanks to the Qube canopy South Kirkby Infant and Nursery School now have a covered outdoor area, suitable for use in any weather.

Marie Johnson oversaw the project for South Kirkby School and commented that what impressed here was the ‘impeccable workmanship and helpful sales advisor.’ Inside2Outside sales advisor James Nottingham managed the project from start to finish and was delighted with the installed Qube Canopy. The 6m by 3m Qube Canopy provides a covered outdoor area that provides protection to those underneath it in all weathers.

Ms Johnson was impressed with the ‘Quick Installation’. The unique design of the Qube allows it to be installed in a matter of days bringing minimal disruption to the school if it is installed in term time. This feature is another reason why the Qube is such an effective canopy for schools.

The Qube has been manufactured with three roof shapes by Inside2Outisde – The Peak, the Apex and the Dome. Now however, it is being manufactured with a Barrel Arch roof shape. This new roof shape adds additional benefits to the canopy. For example, Inside2Outside now combine their structures with Photovoltaics (Solar Power), this is called Tensile PV. The Barrel Arch roof shape is ideal for applying with Photovoltaics. This combination means that your canopy not only provides you with the benefits of a canopy, but also generates electricity! This electricity can be used to reduce energy bills and even generate an income.
