Therapeutic Classrooms

"Well-designed learning environments can significantly enhance students' academic progress and overall well-being, creating spaces where children feel safe, inspired, and ready to learn." (Barrett et al., 2015).

We are proud of our modern, purpose-built classrooms and communal spaces, which are beautifully designed and facilitate a wide range of educational experiences. It is our mission to create therapeutic classrooms that support the emotional and psychological well-being of children, creating an atmosphere that feels both homely and calming.

Our therapeutic classrooms are meticulously designed to enhance the well-being and academic performance of our children. Research indicates that such environments can reduce anxiety and improve focus among children (Barrett et al., 2015).

Soothing colour palettes, comfortable furnishings, and thoughtful layouts promote relaxation and concentration. Gone are the days of garish display boards cluttered with laminated resources. Inspired by nature, natural light, soft textures, and sensory-friendly materials are integral elements of our classrooms, fostering a sense of safety and comfort. This nurturing atmosphere benefits children as it helps them feel more secure and engaged in their learning process. By prioritising these aspects, Arden Primary School ensures that every child has the optimal environment to thrive both academically and emotionally.
