Vertis promises a simple modular construction process for beautiful, sustainable school buildings. We specialise in building single and double classrooms that teachers and students love – and we do it all in just a few weeks.
We’re experts in construction for educators – we’ve built over a hundred modular school buildings so far. We understand the needs and challenges teachers face, and we know how vital an educational space is for young people.
Our productive environments foster learning, fit the needs of a teacher and keep students engaged.
We know the demands for space that schools face, which is why we prioritise a swift, simple, non-disruptive building process that can run during term time.

Why Vertis Buildings?
Build for the future
We build to last. Our structures are made for a 50-year design life with minimal maintenance required. We promise a 10-year guarantee on the structure, and a 20-year guarantee on the roof covering.
A new learning opportunity
We work in term time and the holidays so you can get your building as soon as possible. We won’t get in the way – actually we think you’ll enjoy having us around. Your students can visit the site and get hands-on education about construction, sustainability and the environment.
Health and Safeguarding
The safety of everyone on site is a priority. We adhere to rigorous health and safety protocols, and for the safeguarding of young people we ensure that all our contractors have DBS Enhanced clearance.
Building Green
Wherever possible we use recycled materials and sustainably sourced timber. We prioritise energy efficiency, making classrooms that won’t cost you or the planet. And, for every completed building, we will donate a 500 square metre woodland to the National Trust Plant a Tree campaign.
The best option for Educators
Choose Vertis with confidence because we’re experts and sustainable school buildings are our bread and butter. Educators helped design our modular school buildings with your needs in mind. In just over four months you can secure yourself a classroom built to last for generations.
DfE Compliant
Our buildings are compliant with Department for Education building bulletins. Everything from room size, lighting and ventilation are above and beyond what’s required. This compliance can grant schools extra merit from OFSTED.
Bespoke design
There’s flexibility for you in our base designs, but if it’s a completely bespoke design you’re looking for, we can do that too. Just consider the extra costs involved – get in touch to let us know what you’re looking for.
Finance flexibility
We can explore numerous options for raising money for the project. We work with independent schools and state schools under local authority funding, and can help you raise finance through fundraising, donations or finance plans.
The impact of a Vertis classroom
“We were able to adapt the design exactly the way we wanted it. The builders weren’t phased at all by the challenges of the terrain or the space, they were helpful in the planning process, and friendly and ready to explain what they were doing. They were excellent in their project management and follow-ups, and I am delighted with the outcome.”
Martin O'Grady
“Vertis were so approachable. They came to visit us, walked the site with us, talked to us, listened to what we wanted, and came up with a really good plan right from the outset.
The staff are really pleased with it. It’s given them the space and the capacity to develop the music groups, and the students have been so impressed. It’s given them a new lease of life in terms of music – it’s just done everything we wanted it to do.”
Linda Johnson, Head Teacher
“We call our new modular classrooms The Aviary, to fit in with our bird-themed class names. They are an excellent addition to the school, they provide additional teaching spaces and are in constant use. The building itself blends well with our environment and the children love going into the new classrooms.
Vertis were easy to work with, professional and reliable. We would work with them again.”
Tara Trail, Acting Head Teacher
Testimonial
"We are delighted with our Vertis Classroom! This additional classroom has released space within our main school building. Our modular classroom is an aesthetic, comfortable and engaging learning environment. Our experience of working with Vertis has been wholly positive.”
Lucy Chapman, Head Teacher
“The visual appeal and green credentials of the building were an important part of the development process and for this reason the school chose Vertis, a company known for its commitment to aesthetics, high quality finish and its use of sustainable and environmentally responsible materials in its constructions.”
Richard Lynn, Headmaster
I have no hesitation in recommending Vertis. They created an excellent nursery built to our own specification in a very tight space on a fully established school site. The contractors were respectful and courteous at all times. Working with Vertis has been a great experience and one that we hope to do again.
