We may have a reputation for being the UK’s most frequently recommended playground company, but did you know that we’re also experts at developing outdoor space for secondary schools?
With twenty years of experience we understand that being trusted takes hard work.  It means getting the balance right between delivering fun, safe and engaging outdoor space and demonstrating a return on your investment.  It means refusing to compromise on quality, safety, service levels and imagination, so that it works for all ages and the wider community.
 
Since we began, in 1998, we’ve grown from just five committed members of staff, to a team of over 50 specialists – all passionate about getting students outdoors and active.  Now, as part of idverde, we don’t only create amazing play and sports spaces, we’re part one of the leading landscaping, grounds maintenance, estate management and play space services providers in Europe.
 
Would you like to find out more about our approach to creating sports spaces?
At Playforce, we’re passionate about ensuring all those under 18 have the best opportunities to live healthy, active lives. Over the last 20 years we’ve created a wide portfolio of options for school sports equipment designed for all ages and abilities, and the expertise to deliver these with high standards of customer service. You can download our School Sports Brochure here.

 

Still on the fence? Here are five reasons why you should:

Our School Sports Brochure contains everything you need to know about our MUGAs and sports-related equipment. You’ll find everything you need to know about our outdoor gym equipment, surfacing, fitness stations, mile-a-day trails and much much more.

Find out about the range of amazing options we have exclusively to Playforce, including our partnership with Sports for Schools offering you an opportunity to invite GB athletes to open new sports installations.

Did you know that 94% of the schools we interviewed said that improving outdoor facilities has increased their student’s physical activity levels? The brochure also contains information about our latest research into the importance of investing in your outdoor space and its positive impact on behaviour and attendance. We interviewed Playforce customers to find out what impact their playground investment has had on their school. (Spoiler : the results are fantastic!)

Many of our customers want to develop their playground to meet Ofsted standards. We offer help to schools to satisfy Ofsted guidance on providing opportunities for sport and physical activity as well as delivering the PE curriculum and developing facilities in line with the aims of the Sport England Tackling Inactivity Strategy and government guidelines.

What? You’re still reading and you haven’t downloaded it? Well, why not have a look on our dedicated Sports page at some of the extra guidance and resources we have to support you in developing your outdoor space.
