Where We Work
Education
Armour have a strong foothold in the Education sector; we have a number of school and education clients primarily on fixed-term retainer agreements.
We have a high level of experience in applying today’s health and safety expectations to school buildings that weren’t designed with modern legislation in mind. From legacy construction materials like asbestos and RAAC, to new and evolving risks such as evacuation and lockdown, it can be difficult to meet current standards without tailored, expert support.
Armour can assist with reviewing and updating evacuation procedures, assessing premises compliance, and helping schools find pragmatic, manageable solutions that work day to day, not just on paper.

Armour Risk Consulting has been an excellent partner in supporting Woodbridge School’s health and safety management and compliance processes.
During our recent ISI Inspection in 2026, inspectors highlighted the strength of the School’s compliance culture and record keeping, with our operational records described internally during the inspection process as exemplary.
Armour has played an important role in helping us maintain clear, organised and accessible documentation, alongside providing practical support and guidance across a wide range of health and safety matters.
Their support has helped give us confidence, structure and strong oversight in a complex operational environment.
