Education Cleaning

School cleaning across London

At Juniper Bright we clean primary and secondary schools across London, and we have been doing it in Newham long enough that headteachers here know our people by name. We train our teams to British Institute of Cleaning Science standards, including COSHH, and we hold ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001, all three audited by the British Standards Institution.

What headteachers say

“Their extra attention to detail ensures our building is always clean”

Shahed Ahmed, Executive Head, Elmhurst Primary School

“We definitely have the cleanest school in the land.”

Yolanda Musinguzi, Deputy Headteacher, Altmore and Lathom Schools’ Federation

“The building, classrooms, rebuild and hall all look so welcoming and new.”

Alison Helm, Headteacher, North Beckton Primary School

“By a country mile the most professional, meticulous and cheerful cleaning team I have encountered. Despite 2,000 students on site each day, the buildings gleam every morning. Exceptional performance like this is rare in the sector.”

Built around the way your school runs

  • We build the schedule around your timetable. Our supervisors look at how the school actually gets used and plan the cleaning around it, so the work happens without cutting across teaching.
  • We take safeguarding seriously. Staff working in our schools undergo the appropriate enhanced DBS and safeguarding checks for their roles, including Children’s Barred List checks where required. We also provide schools with a Letter of Assurance confirming that our recruitment and safeguarding practices are in line with Keeping Children Safe in Education guidance.
  • We train every cleaner in COSHH, health and safety, methods and specification to British Institute of Cleaning Science standards.
  • We make good use of the school holidays. Planned deep cleans take place while buildings are quieter, giving our teams the time and access needed for more intensive cleaning.
  • We keep the same faces in your building. By paying the London Living Wage and investing in our teams, we help retain familiar faces who know your school, its staff and its routines.

Our teams come from the communities your school serves

At Juniper Bright we recruit locally, pay the London Living Wage and invest in training and opportunities for our teams to progress. The people cleaning your school often live in the same communities as your pupils, bringing familiarity and continuity to the schools they look after.

We are owned by the London Borough of Newham, so our profits go back to Newham and are reinvested in the community. Local jobs, local training, local spend.

If we already cater for your school

At Juniper Ventures, we already provide catering across 46 education sites in Newham, as well as schools across Waltham Forest and Southwark. If we are already in your kitchen, adding cleaning gives you one supplier, one set of invoices and one relationship to manage. Health and safety services are available from us too.

The work that usually gets contracted out separately

  • Window cleaning
  • Hall floor renovation
  • Pest control
  • Washroom & hygiene services

What we have invested in

We supply, maintain, repair, replace and PAT test all the equipment our teams use, so schools don’t have to manage it themselves. Inspections are recorded on handheld technology as they happen, so you can see the record rather than take our word for it. We use eco-friendly products and local suppliers wherever we can.

ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001, all audited by the British Standards Institution. BICSc trained teams. Neutral Carbon Zone Platinum.
