School Cleaning in London Parents and Pupils Notice
Facilities Clean provides professional school cleaning in London for schools and nurseries where hygiene, safeguarding and reliability are non-negotiable. From early morning cleans before the gates open to deep cleans across the summer holidays, our vetted, DBS-checked and insured teams keep your school clean, healthy and ready to learn in. One point of contact, one simple contract, and a school that's always at its best.
Why London Schools Choose Facilities Clean
A school takes more of a daily battering than almost any other building. Hundreds of children through the doors, muddy shoes, busy corridors, dining halls turning over multiple sittings, and toilets that need attention every single day. A clean school isn't cosmetic. It keeps bugs from spreading through classrooms, supports pupil attendance, protects staff from avoidable sickness, and shows every parent at the gate that the school takes care of the details.
Here's what you get with Facilities Clean:
DBS-checked cleaners you can trust
Every member of our team is vetted, reference checked, DBS checked and fully insured, with documentation provided for your single central record requirements. Safeguarding isn't a box we tick. It's built into how we recruit and how we work.
The same team, every day
Consistent, familiar faces who know your site, your site manager and your standards. No rotating cast of strangers in your school.
Cleaning around the school day
Early morning cleans before pupils arrive, after-school cleans once the building empties, and full flexibility around breakfast clubs, after-school clubs and lettings.
Holiday deep cleans included in the plan
Term time is for maintenance, holidays are for transformation. We schedule deep cleans, floor restoration and periodic works across half terms and the summer break, so every September starts spotless.
Simple, transparent contracts
No lengthy tie-ins and no hidden extras. A clear price that respects a school budget, with the paperwork your business manager needs for procurement and compliance.
One point of contact
A dedicated account manager who actually answers the phone, working directly with your site manager or business manager so issues are resolved the same day, not next term.

Cleaning Schedules Built Around the School Day and the School Year
Early morning cleaning. Our teams clean before the school day begins, so pupils and staff walk into a fresh building every morning, with everything finished before the gates open.
After-school cleaning. The most popular choice. We clean once the building empties, working around after-school clubs and lettings, so the school resets completely every evening.
Daily term-time cleaning. Five-day cleaning that follows your term dates, with the flexibility to cover INSET days, open evenings, parents' evenings and exam periods.
Holiday deep cleans. Half terms, Easter and the summer break are when the big jobs happen: floors stripped and resealed, carpets cleaned, high-level dusting, washroom deep cleans and everything your site manager has on the list. Booked in advance, done properly, finished before the first day back.
Infection control and rapid-response cleans. When a bug goes round, fast, thorough sanitisation of affected areas helps stop the spread and gets attendance back on track. We provide responsive cleans at short notice.

Have a question?
We are dedicated to caring for your school environment, ensuring that pupils learn in clean, healthy classrooms and staff work in a building that supports them.
Understanding that your school is judged every day by parents, pupils, staff and inspectors alike, we offer tailored cleaning solutions designed around the school day and the academic year, allowing your team to focus on teaching and learning while we keep your site clean, hygienic and ready for every school day in the bustling city of London and the surrounding areas.
How much does school cleaning in London cost?
It depends on the size of your site, your pupil numbers and the schedule you need. Most schools pay a fixed monthly price across the year, smoothing term-time cleaning and holiday deep cleans into one predictable budget line. Quotes are always free with no obligation, and we're used to working within school procurement processes.
Are your cleaners DBS checked?
Yes. Every member of our school cleaning teams is DBS checked, reference checked, trained to our standards and covered by full public liability insurance. We provide the documentation your school needs for its single central record and safeguarding policies, and we're happy to discuss your specific requirements around vetting and site access.
Can you clean outside school hours?
Yes, and it's how most schools prefer it. Early morning cleans finish before pupils arrive, and after-school cleans begin once the building empties, working around clubs, lettings and events. Where daytime cleaning is needed, for example washroom checks or dining hall turnarounds, we agree clear arrangements with your safeguarding lead.
What happens during school holidays?
Holidays are when the big work happens. We schedule deep cleans, floor restoration, carpet cleaning and periodic tasks across half terms and the summer break, agreed in advance with your site manager, so the school is at its absolute best for the first day of every term.
Can you help when illness is going round the school?
Yes. When stomach bugs or flu hit a school they spread fast, and thorough sanitisation of classrooms, toilets and high-touch points helps break the chain. We provide rapid-response infection control cleans at short notice, alongside the daily sanitising of touch points that comes as standard.
Do you clean nurseries and early years settings?
Yes, and with particular care. Early years areas are cleaned with appropriate, safe products and extra attention to floors, surfaces and equipment areas, reflecting the fact that the youngest children spend so much of their day at floor level.
Do we have to sign a long contract?
No. We keep contracts simple and flexible, aligned to the academic year where that suits your budgeting, and we can adjust the specification as your school's needs change.
Which areas of London do you cover?
All of them. Our teams work in schools and nurseries across every London borough, north, south, east, west and central. Wherever your school is in London, we can help.
How quickly can you start?
Usually, within a week or two of your quote being approved, and we often time new contracts to start at a half term or the beginning of term for the smoothest handover. If you've been let down by a contractor mid-term, we can move quickly.
