Using lessons learnt
There is now a significant body of research that suggests that the physical environment of schools has a direct impact on students' academic achievement and behaviour. It is therefore critical that the recent achievements of the BSF programme are not completely abandoned in favour of a piecemeal and reactive approach.

A new approach
Scott Brownrigg can demonstrate how tactical interventions on specific areas can significantly improve learning environments for less money and with less disruption to learning. The key to achieving more from less lies with architects and interior designers employing their deep understanding of where the true value lies in existing buildings and then making inspired judgements, in partnership with our clients, on where limited resources should best be deployed to achieve the educational vision.
