St Josephs Patrician College, also known as ‘the Bish’ is a secondary boys school based in the Nun’s Island, Galway. The school currently holds over 750 pupils, and following the increase in admissions and ever growing classroom numbers, they required more classrooms to accommodate this. The best option for a quick fix, with premium quality is to invest in a prefab classroom solution. This means, no down time, little onsite works, less mess and more importantly no hidden costs.
