Dining & Teaching Canopies

Outdoor school canopies are perfect for early years, primary school, secondary school, academies, universities, and colleges across the UK. Many schools come to Miko Engineering with the same problem; inadequate room to fit all their students at break and lunchtime. Building onto the existing school brickwork is expensive and takes time, but Miko’s enclosed outdoor dining canopies are considerably cheaper and take less time. These school canopies also double up as outdoor teaching canopies, the fully enclosed canopies can include electrical points for bringing teaching outside and can be used all year round, whatever the weather. Outdoor canopies and teaching shelters provide protection from the weather.
We recognise that no school is the same as another. All schools have different budgets and available space for outdoor school canopies. By working closely with the school and other contractors, Miko Engineering can design a bespoke canopy that will blend in effortlessly with the school. A school canopy from Miko can include lighting, and electricity points. Our canopies for schools also have a large range of doors, the most popular being sliding canopy doors.
All of Miko Engineering’s school canopies and shelters are bespokely designed and manufactured in the UK, this helps offer the maximum amount of personalisation, and the best installation solution.

What are the benefits of a school canopy?
- Additional seating capacity – social distancing for students and staff members is of high importance and having an outdoor canopy is also a great way to facilitate a circulation of fresh air.
- Improves students’ and teachers’ well-being. It’s scientifically proven that fresh air and spending lunch breaks outside improve the quality of our mood.
- Our school canopies are hard-wearing and robust, they are not phased by the elements and can be placed nearly anywhere in the outdoor spaces at your school.
- Bringing teaching spaces outside aids retention, attainment, and engagement for both primary school age and above.

Reviews
We purchased a number of bespoke external bicycle and buggy storage units from MIKO last year for use by residents of our blocks of flats. The units are clad in timber so blend into the surroundings and are very well used by our tenants as an alternative to storing items in communal stairwells. The company were extremely pleasant to work with, keeping me informed throughout the design and installation stage. I have no hesitation in recommending them as we had an excellent customer experience, we will certainly be using them again in the future if another project should arise. – Elaine Walters, Broadacres Housing
I heartily recommend Miko Shelter Solutions – they have been like Ronseal and done exactly what they said on the tin!
I am writing to thank you for the work that Miko Engineering recently carried out at Oakfield Junior School where you installed an Alnwick Cycle Shelter and Scooter Rack. I have visited the school and I am very pleased with the quality of the work. I would also like to thank you for agreeing to complete the work in time for the school’s ‘Bike It’ activity week. The shelter and rack are already being well used. – Martin Kelly, Transport Strategy, Gateshead Council
