The guide provides recommendations for those seeking a perfect window, door and curtain walling design, as part of the drive towards providing a world-class education system.
L.B.Plastics has designed windows and curtain walling systems specifically for schools and worked closely with architects, local authorities, engineers and contractors for the past 30 years.
Since it pioneered a new approach to school windows, the company has been at the forefront of advances in the industry.
It was the first UK systems company to offer a thermally enhanced structural reinforcing window and curtain-walling product and it continues to break new ground in the thermal, acoustic, ventilation, weather performance and low maintenance properties of windows.
David Strang, marketing director for L.B.Plastics says, "Building Schools for the Future (BSF) is a fantastic initiative which will see every child being educated in a 21st century environment within 15 years".
"We developed our 'Sustainable architectural solutions for schools and colleges' guide to show our support for the building scheme and offer insights into the solutions in terms of sustainability, safety and design".
