Reflecting on learning environments

Leanne Geraghty, Nursery Teacher at Kingfisher Primary School (Astrea Academy Trust), talks about the work which has been conducted at her school around early years environments as part of the year-long Brain-SET project.

This year-long project focused on enabling children to feel emotionally secure and ready for learning, by looking at classroom design in terms of lighting, noise, the use of colour, furniture layout and more. The overall aim was to really bring calm into children's lives, which is particularly important for areas of disadvantage which Astrea Academy Trust schools work within.
