One of the first Kunskapsskollen schools in the UK, Twickenham Academy’s curriculum model prioritises independent and autonomous learning. To deliver this curriculum they wanted a space where students can choose where and how they work.
One old sports hall and a few weeks later, this open plan learning zone was open. Acoustic Pods, StepSeats, VerTable Interactive, banks of integrated ICT desks and a range of soft and upholstered seats support collaboration or individual study.
When asked what they thought about their new learning space, one student said “It’s easier to learn here because we’re excited to learn”.
Pop up monitor IT workstation or standard desk
Soft petal shaped seating for individuals and groups
Circles, waves, collaborative groups or on their own
Duston Eldean Primary School asked Zioxi to design an open plan learning space within their large LRC. The brief for the space was to create an area which was flexible and which included differing types of furniture. The school was keen to let the children choose how and where they would like to work.
Zioxi work with Leeds Trinity University to design and install furniture to house specialist AV equipment in the University’s new Andrew Keen Learning Centre Extension.
