Case studies
Frank Rogers Building Contractors were appointed by Knowsley Council to deliver a comprehensive refurbishment and enhancement scheme at Millbrook Primary School in Kirkby. The works were part of a wider investment into local education facilities, aimed at improving the learning environment for pupils and staff while futureproofing the site for continued growth.
The project involved a broad scope of internal and external improvements, requiring careful planning and coordination within a live school environment. Challenges included:
Integrating a new modular building into an active school site
Delivering extensive refurbishment works without disrupting day-to-day teaching
Creating additional space for leadership and afterschool provision
Upgrading key pupil and staff welfare areas within tight programme constraints
Frank Rogers implemented a structured delivery programme, working closely with school leadership and Knowsley Council to ensure safety, minimal disruption, and high-quality outcomes. Key elements of the project included:
Co-ordination and full fit-out of a new modular building, providing much-needed additional space
Refurbishment and reconfiguration of internal teaching areas within the existing building
Construction of new offices for the Head Teacher and Deputy Head
Installation of new toilet facilities for pupils and staff
Transformation of the afterschool club area, enhancing the provision for extended learning and childcare
Formation of new external walkways to improve site circulation and access
Works were carried out to a high standard, with clear communication and robust safeguarding measures in place throughout.
The project was delivered on time and to specification, resulting in a significantly improved school environment that meets both the current and future needs of the school community. Benefits included:
Improved functionality and flow across the school site
Enhanced welfare facilities for staff and pupils
A modernised afterschool space to support wider family engagement
Increased leadership capacity through new office provision
A safer, more accessible site thanks to upgraded walkways and circulation areas
