St Aidan’s Primary School
St Aidan’s Primary School is a voluntary controlled school in Haringey. They have a firm set of inclusive values, through which they guide their pupils, and endeavour to make their school a friendly place, where everyone feels valued. They look after children through from nursery age, with just over 200 pupils attending regularly. St Aidan’s is proud to hold an ‘Outstanding’ award from Ofsted, from their last inspection.
The PCS Group were honoured to be awarded this contract in 2016. In their requirements they requested a cleaning management team who they could rely on, and who would raise the standards and contribute new and more efficient approaches. Over our time looking after this contract we have introduced many cleaning innovations– from our own rage of chemical free products, to battery operated and power saving cleaning equipment
At St Aidan’s we summarised that the supply of two operatives was sufficient to provide excellent coverage for their requirements. One Supervisor and one cleaning operative. They are both employed for three hours a day, working Monday to Friday. We are very pleased to be able to offer these employees the London Living Wage. The school requires a full and comprehensive cleaning service including the cleaning of the internal areas, external areas, internal and external glazing and disposal of rubbish. When we started the contract, there was no requirement for periodic works. We have since introduced this function to provide the school will a full cleaning programme
We are proud to be welcoming many new products and pieces of equipment to our contracts. All items purchased for the start of the contract at St Aidan’s were brand new, purchased specifically for this contract and school. Equipment is selected based on the size of corridors, halls, and classrooms, the fabrics of the floor, and the age of the building. We maintain the integrity of older buildings through careful consideration of the equipment used, the training of the operatives, and the protective products.
In many cases, electrical equipment can be battery operated. This not only has the benefit of reducing the school’s energy consumption, but also creates a safer environment for operatives who do not have to navigate around trailing cables. The environmental impact of our work is high on our priorities. Because of this, we ensure all appropriate steps are taken for promote the safest practices for your micro and macro environment.
