Professional Modular Learning Spaces
Adacon supplies the P600 building system, a high-specification modular solution that avoids the pitfalls of temporary cabins. Unlike a converted shipping container, our modules are purpose-built steel frames with integrated insulation and professional internal finishes. For educational providers in Poole, this means a classroom that feels like a permanent extension of the main school building, featuring plastered walls, LED lighting, and high-performance glazing.
Typical Configurations for Schools
The P600 system is inherently flexible, allowing modules to be combined side-by-side or stacked over two storeys to suit the specific footprint of a school site. Depending on your headcount requirements, common configurations include:
- Single Module (approx. 13m²): Ideal as a private SEN intervention room, a music practice studio, or a small administrative office for faculty.
- Double Module (approx. 26m²): A versatile space suitable for small group seminars, a staff rest room, or a dedicated nursery playroom.
- Four to Six Modules (52m² - 78m²): A full-sized standard classroom capable of accommodating 30 students comfortably, including space for storage and teaching technology.
- Multi-Module Blocks: Larger configurations can create entire departmental wings with internal corridors, integrated WCs, and kitchenette facilities.

What is Included as Standard
Every P600 module is delivered to Poole finished to a high standard, reducing the amount of on-site trade work required. The standard specification includes:
- Fully insulated steel-framed floor, walls, and roof for year-round thermal efficiency.
- Internal walls finished with plasterboard and white paint.
- Durable laminate flooring suitable for high footfall.
- LED panel lighting and multiple power sockets.
- Double-glazed uPVC windows and high-security external doors.
- Exterior cladding in a range of colours, which can be selected wall-by-wall to match existing school aesthetics.
Optional upgrades include air conditioning units, internal WC and shower compartments, and bespoke decking or ramps for DDA compliance.
Indicative Pricing for Poole Education Projects
Costs for educational buildings vary based on the number of modules and the level of internal fit-out required. Generally, projects for modular classrooms fall within the £30,000 to £90,000 price band. This range covers everything from a well-specified single module to a larger multi-unit block. We provide itemised quotes that clearly separate the building cost from the delivery charges, ensuring full transparency for procurement teams and governors.
Delivery and Installation in Poole
Poole presents unique logistical considerations, from the narrow residential streets of Old Town to the busy arterial routes like the A35 and A3049. Adacon manages the logistics of transporting modules from our facility to your site. Most deliveries to Poole arrive via the M27 and A31, requiring clear access for heavy goods vehicles. If your site is located in a congested area or has limited ground access, we can coordinate crane-in services to lift modules over existing structures or boundary walls. Note that groundworks, including a level concrete or plinth base, and the final connection to the mains electricity and drainage are the responsibility of the customer, though we provide all necessary technical drawings to your local contractors.
Local Authority Context
When installing modular buildings in Poole, it is essential to consider local planning requirements. While some small modular additions may fall under permitted development for schools, most permanent classroom installations will require a formal planning application to the local council. Building regulations will also apply regarding fire safety, ventilation, and accessibility. We recommend engaging with the BCP Council planning department early in your project timeline to confirm specific requirements for your site.
Why Choose Adacon?
Adacon provides a streamlined alternative to traditional construction. While a brick-and-mortar extension might take months to complete, our lead times are typically measured in weeks. Because the majority of the construction happens in our controlled production facility, we significantly reduce the time spent on-site, minimising noise, dust, and safety risks to pupils and staff. Our buildings are relocatable, meaning should your school's needs change in the future, the P600 modules can be dismantled and moved to a different location or sold.
