Holistically enhancing hierachy of needs<br />

for pupils and staff<br />

“I hadn’t appreciated what<br />

a difference it would make<br />

for children & staff.”<br />

That is the view of estates<br />

manager of Kingsweston<br />

School in Bristol, Clive<br />

Farmer, and the reasoning<br />

behind his specification of<br />

fixtures, including a<br />

Closomat Palma Vita<br />

shower (wash & dry) toilet,<br />

for the school’s new<br />

hygiene room.<br />

The new hygiene room<br />

replicates that already<br />

installed in the school a<br />

couple of years ago, and ensures compliance with the criteria laid<br />

down in Building Bulletin 104. Explained estates manager Clive<br />

Farmer, “It was important to mirror the facilities we already have, as<br />

the children are familiar with that. It makes it easier for them to<br />

adjust to being in a different section of the school as they move<br />

from primary to secondary.<br />

Closomat is the ‘go to’ provider for accessible toilet provision, and is<br />

fully Construction (Design & Management) 2015 compliant.<br />

Its website www.clos-o-mat.com is acknowledged as a key<br />

resource to help take the first steps towards efficient accessibility<br />

provision, including design guidance, white papers, CAD blocks,<br />

NBS specification clauses and case studies.<br />
