At Education Space Consultancy, we have a wealth of experience in successfully managing teaching space utilisation surveys for Higher and Further Education institutions throughout the UK. This has resulted in numerous client testimonials being provided, each confirming the high standard and reliability of the service we provide. These testimonials can be viewed by clicking here.
We coordinate and manage all aspects of every Teaching Space Utilisation Survey we carry out, ensuring each project is delivered successfully while causing minimum disruption to each institution’s day to day activities, as well as relieving each institution of the stress and demands of carrying out the survey themselves.
For each survey we only use survey staff individually selected and trained in-house, helping to ensure that each Teaching Space Utilisation Survey is carried out professionally and accurately. In addition, each survey is managed throughout by our dedicated on-site senior management to ensure that each survey runs smoothly, with any questions regarding the survey being answered quickly and efficiently.
In addition to carrying out the Teaching Space Utilisation Survey, we can also provide a detailed consultancy report. This report draws on our extensive experience within education, space management, and timetabling to explore the survey findings, providing detailed recommendations focused on helping each institution to meet their objectives and get the most out of the space they have available.

Having completed the 2015/16 Teaching Space Utilisation Survey & Consultancy Report for London Business School, Rodney Ardé has provided us with the following testimonial;
“London Business School engaged Ben and his Education Space Consultancy services for 2 week long space surveys over the last 2 academic years. Surveys were across an extended day concluding at 9:30PM Monday through Friday. The survey included all school bookable space used to support teaching and study activities. In the second survey we included library pod and open seating areas to gauge level of library space use. Ben and his team of surveyors conducted themselves with utmost professionalism and were able to conduct their rounds with minimal disruption to activities taking place in the survey spaces. Ben was on site throughout and it was very reassuring to know that he was on hand to deal with any issues that arose leaving my Space Management team to deal with the normal complexities associated with timetabling and managing room bookings.
Survey data was collated very quickly and Ben’s associated report detailing findings was informative and very useful in creating a high level executive summary to present to Senior and Executive Management groups. We required amendments to the initial report to ensure that particular emphasis was drawn to key spaces in the school and Ben was very flexible and quick to turn around these report amendments. I have no hesitation in recommending Education Space Consultancy for this type of work and will be using their services for repeat survey work over the coming academic year.

Having recently completed a Teaching Space Utilisation Survey & Consultancy Report for the University of Winchester, Julia Cradock has provided us with the following testimonial;
“The University of Winchester engaged Education Space Consultancy to carry out our annual teaching space survey. The preparation for the survey was very thorough, and it was clear that Ben’s team were well trained to cause as little disruption as possible to the normal running of the teaching day.
The data was collated quickly and was followed shortly after by a detailed report. Ben was very responsive to any queries and happy to include additional report tables we requested. The report was well presented and extremely useful in highlighting areas for investigation. Ben’s extensive knowledge of timetabling and space utilisation was apparent throughout the process, and we would readily ask Education Space Consultancy to help us with future space surveys or other timetabling and space related consultancy.

After successfully completing the University of South Wales, Teaching Space Utilisation Survey earlier this year Simon Walker has provided us with the following testimonial;
“After a recent competitive tender process USW appointed Education Space Consultancy to carry our spring utilisation survey.
The survey covered over 400 teaching rooms at 3 campuses in Pontypridd, Cardiff and Newport. The surveyors carried out the survey from 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday, checking each room on an hourly basis.
Education Space Consultancy was very professional in all aspects of this project and everything went according to plan without any problems. The data collected was produced into an excel spreadsheet, as per USW specification, the following week.
The accuracy of this data is very important to USW as it is used in the creation of a report that is shown at, many high level management meetings throughout the University. I look forward to using Education Space Consultancy in our future Utilisation surveys.

Following the recent completion of the Teaching Space Utilisation Survey and Consultancy Report for Gower College Swansea, Colin Richards has provided us with the following testimonial;
“Following a recent competitive tender process Gower College Swansea appointed Education Space Consultancy to carry out a space utilisation of teaching accommodation on all college sites for this year and a further two years.
This survey was carried out w/c 10th November 2014. The survey covered the day from 09.00 on Monday morning to 16.30 on the Friday afternoon checking each room on an hourly basis in line with the college timetable.
The survey was very professional and went smoothly with no disruption to teaching and learning reported during the week. The report on the utilisation survey was produced very quickly and is a complete and comprehensive record of the week. The report was issued in draft form to enable the College to comment and ensure accuracy prior to the final report. The conclusions and recommendations from Education Space Consultancy are both sensible and achievable and are being closely looked at within the College to bring about a sustained improvement in our use of space.
I have no hesitation in giving Education Space Consultancy this reference and look forward to working with them next year.
Colin Richards
Facilities Manager
Gower College Swansea”
