Knowing Where to Start
With such a dizzying array of options on the market when it comes to your classroom furniture, it can be daunting to actually commit and make a purchase for fear of finding a cheaper, better suited alternative – especially when available funding is sometimes so restricted. Well, here at Edusentials, we work closely with teachers and are driven by their requirement, which is why we understand that when you buy a piece of classroom furniture, you’ll probably need it to do countless things other than what it was originally intended for. That’s why we’ve put together this easy-to-follow guide, explaining some of our most popular product lines, and just how and why they deserve a place in your classroom.
Tables & Chairs
Here at Edusentials, the wide range of classroom tables and chairs we offer are united by their reputation for quality and longevity. That being said, we understand that you require something a little more than just a piece of classroom furniture; you require items that will turn an arbitrary space into something a bit more conducive to interactive learning. We offer a range of school tables for preschoolers right through to those students sitting their final daunting exams, all of which are engineered to be sturdy, secure and, most importantly, easy to maintain. The majority of our pieces are also easily portable, and can be stacked away in a space efficient manner, allowing you to make the most of your classroom. We also sell a number of vibrantly coloured tables and chairs designed specifically to stimulate and engage children in nursery environments.
Library Furniture
An integral part of any modern learning establishment, the school library should be an inviting space that encourages children to learn, enjoy themselves and socialise (quietly, of course), a sentiment that should be echoed in your library furniture. In an attempt to distance their libraries from the somewhat stricter, more refined nature of the classroom, many customers opt for soft seating and beanbags as opposed to conventional chairs. Not only do these unique pieces make students more comfortable and thus help them to concentrate, but they also make the experience of visiting the library a more pleasant, inviting one on the whole. We also appreciate that books and other learning resources are an expensive investment for your school, which is why we offer a range of innovative shelving and storage solutions that are both hard-wearing and protective.
Cupboards & Storage
Whilst they’re probably not going to form as interactive a part of your learning experience as some of our other products, our lines of classroom cupboards and storage solutions are nonetheless important fixtures in any school environment. Having spent many years in classrooms ourselves, we know that security is of paramount important for any storage unit, cupboard or otherwise. As is often the case, your classroom cupboards house any number of objects that can probably be flung, swallowed or even weaponised in the hands of a difficult Year 3 class, so you need to know they’re only accessible with your supervision. We’re also aware that most working classroom cupboards (as much as we’d like them to be) aren’t just going to house a neatly ordered pile of exercise books, but rather become the home of a large variety of unconventional items over the course of the year. As a result, we aim to stock a wide range of school cupboards available in different sizes, in a bid to accommodate a myriad of requirements.
Above is just a brief rundown of some of our most popular items, compiled to help you choose the right classroom furniture to meet your requirements, but also to suit your style. Take your time to peruse our range of conventional and innovative products today, and start outfitting your school with practical, distinctive furniture.
