Purpose-Built Modular Learning Spaces
Adacon supplies the P600 modular system, a precision-engineered solution for the education sector. Unlike refurbished shipping containers, our units are purpose-built steel-framed buildings designed for human occupancy, comfort, and longevity. For schools and nurseries in Hastings, this means high thermal performance, professional internal finishes, and a structural integrity that supports decades of use.
The P600 system is highly flexible. Each module provides approximately 13 m² of floor space. These can be used as standalone pods or linked together in various configurations to create large-scale classroom blocks, faculty offices, or specialized SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) units. Because the units are manufactured off-site in our controlled facility, site disruption in Hastings is kept to an absolute minimum.
Typical Classroom Configurations
We provide a range of layouts to suit different educational needs, from early years settings to adult education centres:
- Single Module (13 m²): Ideal as a private 1-to-1 tutoring room, a music practice studio, or a small administrative office.
- Double Module (26 m²): Suitable for small group interventions, a staff breakroom, or a nursery breakout space.
- Four-Module Block (52 m²): A standard-sized classroom configuration providing ample space for up to 30 students, often used for primary and secondary education.
- Multi-Module Complex (6+ Modules): These can be configured as L-shapes or two-storey blocks to create entire departmental wings, complete with internal corridors and welfare facilities.
You can experiment with these layouts and receive an instant price estimate using our free online P600 configurator.
Delivery and Installation in East Sussex
Transporting modular buildings in Hastings requires specific logistical planning due to the local geography. We typically route deliveries via the A21 or A259, depending on the site’s specific location. While the P600 system is designed for easy transport, Hastings presents unique challenges such as the narrow, winding streets of the Old Town, steep gradients in the West Hill area, and the coastal environmental conditions.
For sites with restricted access, we can often utilise smaller delivery vehicles or arrange for crane lifting over existing structures. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure a level, prepared base is ready before the modules arrive. We provide a full set of technical drawings to assist your groundworks contractor in meeting the necessary tolerances for a seamless installation.
Standard Inclusions and Internal Finishes
Every P600 module is delivered finished to a high commercial standard, ensuring they are ready for furniture and ICT equipment immediately after electrical connection. Standard features include:
- Structure: Galvanized steel frame with insulated walls, floor, and roof.
- Interior: Plastered and painted walls, durable laminate flooring, and integrated LED lighting.
- Fenestration: Double-glazed uPVC windows and external doors for thermal efficiency and acoustic insulation.
- Electrics: Pre-installed sockets and a consumer unit ready for final connection to the site supply.
- Cladding: A choice of exterior colours to match existing school buildings, selectable wall by wall.

Indicative Pricing for Education Projects
The cost of a modular project in Hastings depends on the number of modules, internal fit-out requirements, and site-specific delivery logistics. As an indicative guide:
- Small-scale projects (1-2 modules) typically range from £30,000 to £45,000.
- Mid-sized classroom blocks (3-4 modules) typically range from £50,000 to £75,000.
- Large or complex multi-module installations often range from £80,000 to £90,000+.
These figures cover the buildings themselves. Delivery is quoted separately based on your specific postcode and the number of loads required. Groundworks and final utility connections are managed by the client.
Lead Times and Availability
We understand that education providers often need to align installations with half-terms or summer holidays to minimise pupil disruption. Our lead times are typically measured in weeks. We often have "Ready to Order" stock units available for even faster deployment. Because the P600 system is manufactured in our dedicated facility, we are less susceptible to the supply chain delays common in traditional UK construction.
