At Cabins for Schools, we offer a range of bespoke outdoor classrooms and log cabins designed to be multifunctional, customised to the specific needs of your school. Our cabins provide flexible, versatile spaces that can serve a variety of purposes.

Here are some of the most popular ways schools are using our outdoor classrooms and log cabins:

Create Space For ELSA Sessions

More schools are creating dedicated spaces for ELSA sessions to support students' emotional wellbeing.
 
Asfordby Hill Primary School uses their partitioned Outdoor Classroom as a calming space for children to relax and open up during ELSA sessions. When not in use for ELSA, the space is used for Lego therapy, music tuition, and interventions, creating a multi-purpose environment that promotes student wellbeing.

Upgrade Provisions for SEND Support

For students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) or Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH), a traditional classroom environment can feel overwhelming. Cabins offer a quiet, alternative learning environment where these students can feel more comfortable.

Billesley Primary School uses their outdoor classroom as a dedicated space for Lego therapy and other interventions, providing a peaceful area for students to engage in specialised support.

Provide a Designated Reading Nook or School Library

Our cabins are ideal for creating cosy, inviting reading nooks or libraries. These dedicated spaces can inspire a love for reading in students and offer a quiet escape from the playground during breaks. Schools like Morven Park Primary School have chosen to transform their outdoor classroom into a relaxing reading space with books, beanbags, and creative decorations that make reading fun and comfortable.

Introduce or Develop Forest School & Bushcraft Facilities

Outdoor education is becoming increasingly popular, with schools adding Forest School and bushcraft lessons to their curriculum. A cabin can provide the perfect base for outdoor learning, offering shelter so these activities can continue year-round.

Springfield SEND School created an accessible forest school cabin to ensure all students, including wheelchair users, could fully participate in outdoor learning, regardless of the weather.

Provide a Designated Music Room

Need a space where students can be noisy without disturbing the entire school? An outdoor classroom can become the perfect music room, where students can play instruments freely and express their creativity.
 
At Langar C of E Primary School, we helped create a dedicated music space where students can practice without interruptions, making it an ideal environment for fostering a love of music.

Breakfast Club / After School Clubs & Wraparound Care

Increase your capacity for breakfast clubs, after-school programs, or wraparound care with a dedicated cabin space. These flexible buildings offer a safe, welcoming environment for students outside of regular school hours, helping support working parents while offering children an enjoyable place to spend their time.

Breakout Rooms / Intervention Space

Cabins offer the perfect breakout room for students who need a quiet space to step away from the demands of the classroom.

George Spencer Academy created a wellness cabin that serves as an intervention space where students can regulate their emotions in a comfortable, supportive setting. These spaces are also ideal for small group sessions, promoting better student engagement and peer interaction.

Create Additional Offices & Staff Rooms

As your school grows, so do the needs of your staff. Whether you're accommodating more teachers or need additional office space for administrative tasks, meetings, or staff breaks, our cabins offer bright, airy solutions.

The Priory Primary School utilised a modular office building for their expanding team, creating a functional and comfortable workspace that supports staff productivity.

Ready to transform your school's outdoor space? Whether you're looking to create a quiet zone, music room, or outdoor learning space, Cabins for Schools can design and install the perfect building to meet your school's needs.

'Anne-Marie was fantastic at showing us all the available styles of cabins which could suit our school and the needs of our pupils. We had secured a Local Government grant to enable us to create more room for outdoor learning and the whole experience with Cabins for Schools has been problem free, which is rare in this day & age. The communication levels have been great from signing our forms, through to installation. The children adore their new cabin which we have called The Hut. We often have reading time in there and it's lovely that all the children can sit around the edge of the cabin on the built-in benches.'

'What an incredible build! We wanted this cabin specifically to help our children celebrate reading, and this helps to create that snug, warm, fairy-tale, idyllic environment where our children can get cosy with a book and weave in and out of different worlds as they please. Cabins for Schools were an absolute pleasure and delight to work with, and we can't recommend them enough! Very professional and polite, a great project for us all!'
