Overview
Education has been a core part of Olympian Decor's work for years, from primary-school classrooms to university halls and teaching blocks. Much of the work you'll see in our project gallery comes from schools: colour-zoned corridors, classroom feature walls, sports halls, washrooms and stairwells.
We know the holiday window is non-negotiable. We plan the programme backwards from the day staff return, resource it properly, and hand back clean, finished, ready-to-teach rooms — not a building full of dust sheets on INSET day.

Frequently asked
Can you get a whole school done over the summer?
Yes. We'll survey before the holidays, agree priorities and zoning, and resource the team so the full programme lands inside the break with time for snagging.
Are your decorators DBS checked?
Teams working in education settings are DBS checked, and we follow each school's sign-in, keyholding and safeguarding procedures.
Can you help choose colours?
We regularly help schools plan colour-zoning so each department, floor or key stage has its own identity — it helps with wayfinding and makes buildings feel cared for.
