Why we are conducting this research
Our previous research results (focused on learning spaces and boarding spaces) reveal that many leaders don’t feel existing spaces are up to scratch, with even basic functions – like ventilation and storage – needing improvement.
What’s more, we are hearing that school leaders believe their current sixth form spaces are holding students back. So we have launched this research to identify the areas of sixth forms which need the most attention to help you as a school, and as a industry as a whole.
Below is a snapshot of some of the previous research findings:
56%
of schools felt their environments weren’t supporting students with neurodiverse needs
44%
of leaders believe their current learning spaces are preventing students from reaching their full potential
96%
of schools haven’t intentionally designed neuro-inclusive boarding spaces
