Another year, another refurbishment As part of Leventhorpe Academy's annual refurbishment programme, we were once again involved in upgrading their school washrooms – this time in the Technology Block. This is the third year in a row we’ve been part of their washroom refurbishment works, and we’re proud to keep supporting the Academy with washroom solutions that are modern, durable and hygienic.

The school wanted the old male and female toilets stripped out and replaced with a fresh, robust solution to match the style and quality of previous refurbishments. Consistency across the site was key, along with products tough enough to cope with daily student use.
The project at Leventhorpe Academy was a true collaboration. TBS Amwell supplied all of the bespoke washroom products, and Novus Workspace Solutions Ltd carried out the installation to bring the school washroom designs to life.
Martin Dimambro, Director at Novus Workspace Solutions Ltd, stated: “Having used TBS Amwell products on many occasions I can confidently say that they are well designed and great products to work with, making installation quite a straightforward process.”
Our scope included the design and manufacture of toilet cubicles, washtroughs, IPS panelling and vanity units – all tailored to suit the demands of a busy secondary school environment.
Finished in Summer Oak laminate, these cubicles are designed to meet Department for Education regulations, with 5mm floor clearance and overpanels for maximum privacy. Anti-finger trap hinges add safety, while Solid Grade Laminate construction ensures durability, water resistance, and easy maintenance.
Supplied in Stone laminate with Pepper flashgaps, panels arrived pre-fitted to a steel frame for quick, flexible installation. The system conceals plumbing for a clean, hygienic finish.
The Solid Surface Washtrough in Avalanche is a practical and hygienic handwashing solution, designed with a 400mm reduced depth to be space-efficient and for easy handwashing. The thermoforming process during manufacture moulds the trough to reduce joints for easier cleaning.
Paired with the Education Washtroughs, the PDQ Vanity and Frame allowed for a fast installation during the summer holidays works, keeping the project on schedule. The SGL underpanel frame provides a modern, sleek and durable finish.
The finished washrooms at Leventhorpe Academy Technology Block are another great example of how our education washroom solutions can transform tired facilities into modern, practical and safe spaces.
By combining durable cubicles, versatile PDQ Panel & Frame systems, and hygienic washtroughs, we delivered a secondary school washroom refurbishment that’s not only functional but also looks the part.
This is now the third successful project we’ve completed at Leventhorpe Academy – and judging by the results, we can’t wait to see which block they’ll ask us to refurbish next!
