With nearly 25 years of experience and partnerships with almost 5,000 schools, we specialise in helping organisations understand, manage, and optimise their estates through unified data. We create 2D CAD floor
plans, 3D BIM, integrated dashboards, capacity analysis, and IoT solutions that centralise building data and turn it into clear, practical insights.
Working closely with estates and facilities teams (particularly across schools and multi-academy trusts), we deliver solutions that support day-to-day operations, strategic planning, and long-term improvement, with an
ultimate goal of shaping learning environments where every child can thrive, focus, and develop.

TG Escapes modular eco-buildings use modern methods of construction, traditional materials and sophisticated technology to create a standalone biophilic space. The innovative bespoke architect-designed system provides timber frame buildings to suit most locations and uses, in a variety of finishes including timber, composite cladding or render in a range of colours, and brick slips. Offsite construction minimises disruption, cost and risk. We offer a complete design, planning and build service. The buildings are aesthetically pleasing, low-carbon and highly practical, designed for an A+ energy rating to last 50 years or more with appropriate maintenance. Lease funding available.
