Barley Hill Primary School, Thame: A Commercial Cleaning Case Study
School Cleaning
Thame, Oxfordshire
Daily School Cleaning and Periodic Deep Cleans
May 2025
Project Overview
Barley Hill Primary School in Thame came to us in May 2025 following difficulties with their previous cleaning company. Communication had been poor and the standard of cleaning was inconsistent, which is exactly the kind of situation that causes problems in an active school environment where hygiene matters every single day.
We put a settled, reliable team in place from the start. Five cleaners cover the school every day, and we also carry out periodic deep cleans to fully reset the building between terms. The School Business Manager, Caroline Mylroie, has been happy with the service since day one.
“Excellent service since taking over the cleaning of our school in May. Couldn’t be more pleased!”
